Here, I got one better for ya..


Losi-8 RTR Truggy, WAY more durable then a erevo.... Electric conversion kit, motor and ESC and your under $1000...

Now what??

Wait a second, you could sell the engine and starter box and be LESS then a erevo lol..

A Jrx-t... sure at the time losi called it a "monster truck". It was far from being a monster truck considering what monster trucks were out at that time like the clod buster. It was basically the jrx-2 buggy with truck wheels and body. Which is pretty much all a truggy is. It didn't compete with monster trucks or in the buggy class. And before the Jrx-t and rc10t people were taking buggies and putting truck bodies and wheels on their buggies. I still got my rc10 that I converted to a truck back in the 80's. People been converting buggies into trucks for decades and racing them. It pretty much pioneered what a truggy is today.

okay so back to the e revo and enough bickering anyone know if the stock erevo esc mount will fit the mamba monster 2

I had a rc10, sold it a long time ago, wish I never sold it. I never would have thought to put M/T tires on a Jrx stadium truck back then.

Dude this thread is for us E-Revo fans, it was kinda funny at the start but now you're just trollin.

You'd think it would, shoot an email off to castle and find out.

You didn't know got_nitro was a troll? LOL. He's been on my ignore list for like 4 years.

OH and slightly a hypocrite as well comparing his little bathtub racer to a 10th scale one which we all know is a bit of a different beast.

Puff Puff give..... I built and sold that for a neighbor It's great to know you looked at my sales history, thanks for the satisfaction!

Truggys have there place and so do E-Revos. I still really like both. Why cant we all JUST GET ALONG?? I have been a dedicated racer and my son beat the crap out of a Slash and loved it. You can put a 8ight or a revo together for less than 1000.00 if you look around and are patient. I know because I have done it twice! Reguardless I Still Love My 2 E-REVOs!

Oh and speaking of a Center Diff in a Revo has anybody ever had one? I just took one out of mine. I hated it because even with extremely thick fluid it slipped way too much! Mostly was a front wheel drive with occational 4wd. Maybe with concrete in it, it would work better! Never had it on a race track to see how it would work. Just my $.02 but I dont like them...

My next project may be e revo. With a kershaw extended chassis and 1/5 brushless system. Or I'm gonna get another big block and have it.modded by abmods....

I have had one in mine since the day they were available , it makes the truck much more forgiving on the track as it bleeds power off to the front wheels during hard accelleration coming out of corners and helps keep the rear end in line . Bashers dont like it cause it robs accelleration and takes away wheelies but on a track the C/D is much better IMO .....

I don't think the Revo is more versatile than a truggy...and I know for sure that truggies can outbash revos by a looooooongshot!!! You cannot compare durability between the two. And There is tons of room for customization of truggies!!


Here's my D8t truggy using a Vorza chassis, Emaxx bug body, and MT4-g3 tires. If you saw this thing run side by side with the e-revo you'd experience the revo looking like a Toys r Us toy.....durability, performance, handling.....no comparison.


And check out my build thread if you don't think a truggy/buggy can be versatile/customizable

You call the Revo a toy when you post a picture of that hideous thing? I'll take my chances with a Revo.. I have videos showing the air I had with no issues, so I'll keep my taller ride height and accessibility to much more aftermarket fun over a Truggy any day.

I had a brushless revo for several years....and I've had a Summit since they were first released......I know the platform well....I know what they can do and I know their limitations. Check out some of my videos on this thread.

A revo CANNOT stand up to a truggy for bashing. I thought like you too when I only owned traxxas stuff.. The main thing I didn't like about the revo was 1/1o scale diffs in a 1/8 scale truck. Weak, weak. Weak....especially for almost $800!!!!jeesh. Holy overpricification Batman
E-revo is kinda fun, but definitely toyish compared to a good truggy.
