Hey guys, I am looking to get a new truck to race at the new facility in joilet was wondering what your inputs where on these trucks. Please dont bid on them it will only make me have to pay more

#1 revo --- Revo Roller

#2 revo -- REvo RTR

#3 Revo --- revo

#4 lsp --- LSP

I am also looking for Radio gear suggestions would be great.

#1...Looks like a decent deal w/ starter box

#2... getting pricey if reserve doesn't get met soon.

#3...Nice truck, but seller seems to have bad attitude and 0 (zero) feedback...I'd be cautious.

#4...Totally different catagory and budget, very nice set up depending on final price.

Just my $.02

I do like #1 and i asked what the reserve was for the lsp #4 he said 425 thats without radio and starter box, good deal yes/no?

I'd either go REVO 1 or LSP 4...

I think #4 is a serious deal IF the engine is in good shape!!!! ( And the head bolts are tight! Sorry inside joke)
Depending on final price your getting alot of stuff.... Extra tires,Parts and some race worthy upgrades..

But what the heck is that plastic thing bolted to the reaer chasssis brace?? Transponder mount???

No idea on the plastic thingy. The guy said the reserve is at 425 is it worth it?

If you are serious about racing id go with the LSP

rocco79 · (#8 (**permalink**))

if the engine is good id say its a good deal

Obsessive R/C · (#9 (**permalink**))

See if he''ll end early for $425....

Waiting for response. What kind of starter would this truck take?

Czech-it-Out Graphics · (#11 (**permalink**))

any 1/8th scale starter box would work. Team associated makes a good one as does Ofna

Still in a dilemma, what should i get a revo or an lsp. I had a revo loved it raced it and did really well with it, on the other hand the lsp is a great truck and is really fast, but i dont know to much about it. Should i stay with a truck that i know or try somthing diffrent. Is there going to be an unlimited class at the new track or are they going to put all the mt's and the unlimited trucks together like they did before at the old track?

im pretty sure that it will be a separate class, it all depends on the turnouts they get. No matter how fast u were with ur revo I think you will be faster with a LSP, UMT's are just like 1/8thscales. I think u would be better off savin some cash up and buying a new Jammin or maybe the St-1 or kyosho truggy. But if you dont wanna spend much go with the LSP.

You will probably find it easier to work on the LSP its bigger and its pretty simply setup
