Where's my entire post gone?
Oh well, I'm not writing it all out again today.
Suffice to say the edited highlights were:
EXB handled like a tank and had great punch
Kagama LE handled brilliantly, but only had about 25metres of radio range because the RTR radio is crap.
The XTR drove like an absolute machine. Total madness.
All 3 rigs were blasted over tarmac, grass, skate park. Only the XTR and EXB did laps on the Velodrome, due to radio issues with the LE.
Driving ranking:
1) XTR 21
2) Kagama LE
3) EXB V6
Cool Factor:
1) Kagama LE
2) EXB V6
3) XTR 21
Drive 1: EXB
The EXB ripped around the empty Government carpark like something possessed - it had great punch and was surprisingly driveable, thanks to the consistent Copperhead 2 tyres.
I was able to clip apexes and maintain control past the limit of traction, with the EXB handling in a predictable, quite neutral way. Very good, despite the heft.
Over grassy banks and mounds, whilst the EXB was more than up to the task, it was definitely better on sand, gravel and dirt. The bumpy terrain was no problem for the EXB - the extra long suspension throw well suited to such terrain. The extra heft carried by this rig certainly added a certain momentum to it - useful for bumpy stuff.
Around the Velodrome, the EXB proved consistent and fast, too. The tyres worked consistently and didn't balloon uncontrollably, thus I was able to get over 60 mph..nice! No diffs blew either, which I was assured is a given on Kratons.

On its highly modified form, at 309g heavier than the XTR, it works out at 5.6% heavier. But it's solid for jumps and will not bend.
Drive 2: Kagama LE
The LE had terrific punch and the gripper tyres hooked up well around the Government carpark. The sheer speed was impressive and the handling was good - not as aggressive as the XTR, but as good or better than the EXB for cornering and getting the power down.
Once the speed was up, ballooning tyres were a handful, so it was clear that Copperhead V2's were better suited for higher speeds on hard surfaces.
On grass however, the LE had extra punch and climbed up slopes more readily than the EXB. In fact it was so fast, it could exit the reception range of the RTR radio in mere seconds.

It was a hot day, and I didn't feel like running around after it, so I literally had to keep the LE within 25 - 30 metres at all times. Running laps on the Velodrome wasn't an option. Needless to say, 2 diversity FASST Corona receivers are on their way!
In it's stock form, at 290g heavier than the XTR, the LE is around 5.4% heavier. But considering all the extra bracing and stronger composites, that's not a bad trade off for people wanting to jump to the moon. This car is solid. Would I jump to the moon with this? Yes. I believe it would take it. Am I actually going to? Nope.
Drive 3: XTR
Immediately, I could feel extra steering. The truck rotated easier and I could make it do things neither of the other two could. I could pick lines, drift, scandi flick, change direction in a way that the others can't do. On the hard surface in the Government carpark, I felt entirely at one with the car.
On grass, the XTR really demonstrated why being light and nimble results in a more agile machine. The Gripper tyres are essentially at their best on grassy surfaces. They offer a very plush ride.
Around the Velodrome, the high speed runs were a handful on the Grippers, but it was manageable. On the 13/46 gearing, technically the rig was capable of hitting 70mph - but - when the tyres expand into Pizza cutters, the ESC has no choice but limit the current draw. At 820mm diameter, the tyres were writing cheques they couldn't cash!
I ended up on the current limiter twice - each time as I got on to the back straight of the oval.and onto full throttle. Speed? About 65mph.
Over sand and gravel, yes - the XTR seems at home. There isn't another rig that would cover more ground on this kind of surface. It's quite a weapon and would readily race in a 6S class of its own.
Would I jump to the moon? Nope. Not with this one.
