Ok, i got an idea of building a car that was specificly made for stunts. I made a list of cars, Traxxas Revo 3.3, Team Losi Muggy, Team Losi LST 2, CEN matrix tr arena kit, and Ofna Hyper ST. So which is best??

I would vote for the LST 2 b/c its a very beefy truck

To be honest I think stadium car's make great stunt vehicles, and WOT in the air= insanely fast backflipping action!
LST2 is very good as well, and one of the most controllable in that list.

What about a savage? Hard to beat on durability. Especially now that they finally gave us aluminum diff cases installed plus the 4.6 engine.
What kind of stunts are we talking about anyway? Wheelies? Jumps? Driving through fire? Skate Park?

I remember my buddies savage, I hated the way it jumped, was so unpredictable, was definitely durable though.

well ya that the thing when you jump 8 feet off the ground you need to land it without breaking but with durable car you might not lift 8 feet of the ground

CEN all the way. Their newly designed cars are absolutely bomb proof, and they offer some incredible prices as well. Good luck!

LOL i keep forgeting about the GST. GET the GST it is as strong, or wait no stronger then the savage, has a big engine, 3 speed, reverse, big wheels that allow you to do flips VERY easily. Its priced pretty good for what you get.

have you looked in to the schumacher havoc, it was made for pretty much made for what you want to do. it is supposed to jump realy well to quote rc car action "the havoc was built for air, and it delivers" as for other trucks a well equipped revo would do well, mine jumps really well. as for the lst2 i havent jumped mine yet do to lots of rain, its barely broken in, but it seems very durable and fast

Sorry but for shere durability and the willing to give its plastic composite life for its radio weilding masters I go with the TRAXXAS STAMPEDE ...... Cant beat a pede . Parts are everywhere and cheap to boot :D

I'm all for CEN GST or HPI Savage! The HPI HellFire is also a good truggie for jumping, flips, strong, and its Race ready out of the box... It comes in Kit for and RTR.

Ok so get the LST2.
Get rpm a-arms, get the lunsford rod for the upper a arms.
Get lunsford turnbuckles.
Get new era spindles
Get dynamite engine brace
Get um? Thats all I can think that you would need to make it super durable. Out of the box its already durable soooo..... Actually you might not even want the rpm a-arms.
