I think I saw your other post about MT's. If you plan on running on a track get the e-firestorm. A stampede is not designed for racing.

the E firestorm would kill the rustler in a dirt race with equal talent.

If you think an e-firestorm is slow you dont deserve one you know way to little about what can be done to it stock. It doesnt come with a batt so obviously every vid you have watched isnt of it stock its alreadt been modded with a batt.

Ok...sorry in the vid i watched it just looked slow. and when i said stock i meant like no brushless motors or anything like that just the stuff that came with it and a batt. (still no fancy lipo or anything like that) i mean even the rustler vids make the rustler (stock w/ no fancy pancy batt. lol) look kinda slow but my dad has one and its not slow and its super fun to drive

He did'nt ask weather he deserves it or not. He asked a simple question, do they go slow.

Yeah they're kinda slow/look off to me, but I saw one of those brushless setup's recentely, quite intresting I might say.

my rusty makes a good basher, but would be really hard to race. under power the rusty pushes, and can spin out easy under braking.
i could make some adjustments, but it just wasnt built with racing in mind. against another rusty you could have fun racing, but many other e-stadium trucks handle much better.
