Hey everyone, I'm new to this scene. I want to buy one of these. But I dont know which one. Theres the Micro T, the Raminator, or the Desert Truck. I'm more into the offroad, dirt jump scene, if that was needed.

Personal preference here but I'd go with the Desert truck.

dt longer in length better handling.. overall their all pretty fun rc's.. but i do run my dt more than the others and seem to like it more.. its handled pretty well with everything ive put it to.

DT
- a tiny bit more ride height than the T
- Doesn't wheely as much
- Tires and wheels look good, as well as the bumpers.
- More room for battery options
But I don't have a DT yet...... yet.

Ok, now I have another question, Do they both go the same speed? I was watching some videos on youtube, and it looked like the T was faster.

Taller tires give a higher rollout ratio, in other words it's like gearing for more top speed, so the cars with the taller tires do not accelerate as quickly. Which actually might lend to the DT being easier to control.
