there is a lst at my local track and it cant get out of its own way its so slow. i would say a revo is the way to go. its more nibble, lighter, fast, and far superior in terms of racing.

not neccearily, dont forget, its more about skilzl then the car, but the revo does give u alil bit of edge. I know some1 with a LST that is 1st in the MT. He is a awesoem driver on ANY CAR!

You guys race big block and small block together.Wierd.You can't account for every chump who buys a truck and tries to race it,the driver has a lot to do with it,(i'm gonna bite my lip).On alot of tracks,the small blocks are quicker than the unlimiteds but this is not always the case at every track.Over here the tracks are a little different,$w!ft is from the UK,he never mentioned racing either.

Thing is i race and i Bash. I bash if there isnt a racing event(and there arent that many), so primarily bashing.

Revo with RB or LSt with novarossi.

I think i might go with the revo because losi is almost non existant here.

ya, same for me. Dunno why. well, go with the rb, it is still a competetive motor, just learn how to handle that extra power on tthe track. Cuz many say the power is overkill for racing.

yeah, EZ start will work fine w/ the RB - i'm looking at getting the RB323 myself for several reasons; you don't need another engine mount, it comes with everything you need in one package, and i've had some friends tell me that it's a champ so far as keeping it's tune - only wide environmental changes necessitate messing around with the mixture. according to the 3 people i've talked to, once you complete your initial setup and get everything dialed in, you're solid.

i'm less inclined to go with the os.18 because you still gotta get a pipe and engine mount (and whatever else i don't know about). i haven't added up the numbers, but it sounds like the RB will be cheaper by the time it's all said and done.

another friend of mine put a trinity pipe on the stock 2.5R on his Revo - and even though it's labeled to fit the Revo, it's not as nice of a fit as the stock pipe. it takes a bit of fiddling to get it to not interfere with the rear rockers, including bending the thick wire it mounts to... and once you're done it sits at a weird angle. it works and all, but it doesn't look stock and it's not as nice as you might want...
