Awesome video! I agree, it's a tie, they're both equally awesome! But, personally I'll spend my money on the Kronos XTR mainly to support Team Corally (they deserve it!) and to disrupt the market even further. If we all keep buying Traxxas then they'll keep charging extortionate prices and giving us plastic cars, but you can tell they're getting worried now with the release of the Sledge. The more we get behind the underdogs, the more competition it sparks which ultimately should drive prices down and quality up, we all win!

100% nailed it mate. Time to see what others will do to re invigorate the market the hobby and enthusiast without having too take out a bloody loan to be a part of it. Been to long inbetween New vehicle releases and I've moved on and now hard to look backwards. They want $1,400 for the sledge in Australia. I bought a brand new Dementor V2 for $525.00 imagine what it would be like if I have invested the difference? No sledge required.

Excellent and honest review. Ive broken the wing on the Xtr so put a wheelie bar on. I break Arrmas more than the Xtr . It really goes with a max8 g2 2250 kv combo. Quickly became my favourite truck. I love the way it handles and feels smooth. Parts are cheap to. This was a great test and fair.
@3SonsRC2 жыл бұрын
Yeah bro I think unbiased call you got to call this a tie because both truck perform almost exactly the same did almost the same exact tricks but you're right the XTR had some bad wrecks where's the exb landed perfect pretty much all the time so who knows how the EXB would have handled those type of wrecks.... what I'm super impressed with is how the XTR only took minimal damage is that was one of the worst wrecks I've seen and the drive cups those springsteel Drive cups handle that and only the drive shaft bent probably the worst I've ever seen, a drive shaft Bend, no arms broken it's actually quite amazing both trucks are fantastic anybody will be happy to have either one of these so Props to Armma props to Corally for putting out fantastic tough rigs for us hardcore Bashers great video brother😍😍

Awesome video as always. You should cut just a bit of the XTR body right behind the front wheels - that will remove the rubbing sound when ballooning and spare the tires 👍 I have both, and they def. have their pros and cons, but I actually think the XTR is the winner. The videos I have seen where they destroy the XTR all have landings no car would have been able to survive (and still be build as a car that can actually handle, and not like a heavy tank).

Another great bash, Rocky! The Kronos held up a lot better this time than I thought it would. BUT if anyone could make it a bash worthy contender, I knew you could. That thing was killing it even with a blown tire. Excellent. I would say they are BOTH bashing BEASTS now, bro. Liking the new body on the Kraton, it looks twisted with the zebra striping. But it needs some body armor like tape and shoe goo to hold up to YOUR style of abuse. lol. I would definitely go with the Game Changer duel fan set ups for those engines like Jon suggested; they're worth the price if you wanna keep those engines happy. And they run like unstoppable beasts, but you might want to take the gearing down a tooth or 2. BUT they were ripping it up out there. With what you have done to the Kronos, I call a tie. They are BOTH bad-ass performers, bro. Keep sending 'em to the moon. And Bash on, brother!!!
