Ive only had the nitro evader out of those and its been the best rc ive ever owned. The dtx .18 in it is so powerful. I slipped a 54 tooth spur gear on it(60 stock) and it easily whoops on any other rc ive ever raced against. Its just to big to race competitively and thats about its only downfall. Its extremely easy to tune too. The rest of the truck is great too. I was just driving it at my local track and was so easy to clear the triples. The truck also has many hop ups on it stock. Its also the cheapest of the ones you listed. All around, great truck.



btw its tough too..........only broken the rear battery box from some bad landings.

I agree with nitroguy, If your new you should get a truck that is easy to work on. And they don't get much easier than the evader. Plus did he mention it's fast! and a well balanced truck. fly's nice[sm=thumbup.gif]

thanks guys this will help alot where should i buy it? how fast does the evader go anyways? will it beat a nitro rustler 2.5 that my bro has? we have a motocross track will it handle big jumps or will it break if it would what kind of suspension would you recommend to handle them. also what are good parts that i should get for it such as exhaust systems, clutch bells, spur gears and servos.

thanks jon

If you use the search feature you will get so much info on hop up's and performance it's ridiculous. Just search "nitro evader" then flip through the post I'm sure you will find the answers.
