Ok, I took it for a spin today and man does it go. Very strong from a stand still (I forgot how much torque electric motors have, been running nitro's too long). Had to loosen up the slipper a little because I was worried the spur would lose some teeth. The disk brake works great, I had to loosen them up as well (way too strong). It was getting dark and I didn't have anyone around to hold the radar gun so I didn't get any speed readings (coming soon). I did get a chance to weight it on my super duper Oregon Scientific model BWR102 scale. Using generic 3000 mAh batteries the E-Revo weighted in at 10.3 lbs. Without the batteries it weighted 8.8 lbs. My almost bone stock Nitro Revo weighted 8.7 lbs. So not too bad.
