Vids will be made this weekend I think. After tax, it came up to 310. I wanted to keep the money local,instead of going to a web based store, but can be bought cheaper at tower, with towers coupons. I ended up waiting for a few days for my LHS to get them, which they kept saying any day, but ended up going to Rock Hill's Hobby Stop. They came through with this, as well as the slash when it first came out. Wife liked it so much, I now have my brushless slash up for sale, to cover the cost of a second mini revo.

I cant compare the 2 as i have never driven a Stampede. As comparing it to a full size revo though, pretty much identical. A bit more tippy on fast cornering, but thats to be expected for a truck moving faster than a revo (stock 3.3 that is) and a much lighter weight. As far as durability, stands up to the Traxxas name, havent broken a thing.

Lot of folks have swapped out to higher weight shock oil (60 seems to be avg) and the tightest springs and others have went with some Ace Hardware springs.  I have the links somewhere to what's needed.

I'm going to do both and swap out tires to the Revo tires on my slash VXL-sucks getting stuck in the grass.
