LOSI

I reckon the Losi with out-perform the Slash, but for sheer fun, the Traxxas looks better.....

.....I'm still undecided!! :P

hmm both are great models, the losi does look like it may just out perform the slash, but one thing that all traxxas models have down to a T is the layout of the electrics..

I think i would go for the Traxxas Slash, for looks, fun and price..

Love the way traxxas made that video, blending in RC action with real action :clap:

i think you are right that the losi will out perform the slash but with a brushless in the slash it should be even more fun :thumbs_up:

Spot On mate....

Thats why i'm on the Slash's side. If i do get a 1 battery Car/Truck, i Want it for FUN !!!!

And i reckon the Slash Wins on that note....

the Losi is better looking in my eyes and i bet it will out perform the traxass too!! and i bet the rear bulkheads are stronger too :P

My only concern with the Slash is that I suspect I might end up spending more time following it round flipping it back onto its wheels than I would driving it... :gay:
So I prefer the Losi :D

The big question's going to be,which one will work best on our high grip terrain? They both look good on loose dirt tracks,where you can slide your rear end out,but on a grass track?I think that the Traxxas will be better suited to on 1/8th scale off-road track than it would a 1/10 one,as it seems to be ever so slightly wider & longer than the Losi,though that may be just an optical illusion.
At the moment,I'm more inclined to go for the Traxxas,and I'll keep it brushed,as I think that brushless would make it too uncontrollable for an off-road track. :D
