Id be leary of Redcat but maybe their getting better. Either way, thats a bad looking rig for sure.

Savage X 4.6 or nothing at all.

Nothing against Redcat (as I've never owned one) but I think you would be better served with the Savage X or maybe a Losi LST or Aftershock. It may be a little more expensive now but it will pay for itself more in the long run. The one thing I've always heard about Redcats is that they're made of cheaper parts with less attention to detail. Just my $.02.

Thinking about another 1/5 scale... Gotta go big or go home.

I remember Quincy Jones, I'm sure I heard "I heard that", but I don't remember it.

Hi Rolex,
You may listen to it on youtube, if you wish to refresh your memory.
It's a great song with a simple lyric. Ah, and some very pleasant synth and bass.

Can't find it by that title.

For you guys wanting 1/8th scale. MGT!!! It has a BB from associated and will handle any amount of power you want to throw at it. I know there are a lot of savage fans out there. I have a savage too but i like the MGT more. Easier to work on for one thing. The 8.0 isn't the most popular granted. But the 8.0 and earlier 4.6's share the same chassis. I have a 8.0 chassis with a .28 motor on it. It rips to put it mildly. Just my opinion.

Savage or LST2/XXL IMO

^^+1!!

Where will Redcat be with supporting parts for that truck 2 years from now?

 

[hamz9561]

Redcat support? Isn't that like Integy customer service?

 

[Greywolf74]

Or Integy durability....

 

[EXTREME1]

yes i agree.all of my rc's are traxxas now.but traxxas does't really put out a 1/8 nitro.

this is the new $100.00 bills... think i'm gonna wait and look @the savage.but leaning towards the 4.6 truggy

 

[Greywolf74]

The maxx, revo, and summit are all basically 1/8 scale Traxxas just wants to call em 1/10 for some reason.
