1. Comparing a 3.3 Revo to the old .21 Savage isn't fair. The 4.6 version that have been around for time now do over 40mph very easily...3 speed even more.

2. I will admit that the Revo handles better in the corners but i don't think it handles rough terrain as well...tends to not track as straight.

BUT...it just seems a little anemic next to most 1/8th scales...and you just have to spend so much more to get it ready for xl sized, 19 or 22 series motors.

oh well, hope i don't get flamed...just my thoughts on it as i thought long about which one to convert (first) :004:
