Comparisons
The ARRMA 2018 Kraton 1/8 4WD 6S Brushless RTR has a much higher top speed than the Traxxas Rustler 4x4 VXL RTR Truck & 60+MPH 3S LiPo Combo. The Kraton can reach speeds of up to 100mph, while the Rustler is limited to 60mph. The Kraton is also more rugged and durable, making it better suited for off-road driving. However, the Rustler is less expensive and may be a better option for budget-minded shoppers.
