umm thats like comparring a bolt to a butter fly... they are 2 veeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeery differnet things, if u live in an area with nothing but big ass rocks and ledges the superclass will be a better crawler. live in a much flatter area and the mrc will fit the bill better

id go with mrc, their small, easy to travel with, and less expensive to fix, not to mention driving indoor with the mrc is a blast!!!

What size of crawler do you want? Big or small?

Small=MRC
Big=Superclass

RTR is just as it says, ready to run.

BND is "bind and drive". Its for those that already own a Spektrum radio and comes with everything BUT the transmitter. All you have to do is bind your radio to the reciever on the truck and you're ready to go.

How much do you want to spend? For a true comp super you could buy a couple of mrc's. The tire cost alone scares the crap outta me.

supers are amazing rigs. the capabilities of a super class crawler will make you chit yourself at times.

MRC's are pretty damn cool to

x2 on that.....that's quite a choice you're giving yourself there. but like others are saying...just think about what you wanna do with a crawler. I have a mini and a 2.2 and love them both. I'd like a super someday but I know that at the comps I go to there's pretty much always a 2.2 and 1.9 class but only a few have super class comps.

and definately think of the terrain you have to crawl on. You can take a mini to even small rock areas and have a blast where a super requires some serious rocks to really test them out and have run. I have a small rock pile at my house and my friends and I have fun with the minis but if we put the 2.2 on them it's boring

I would see what others in your area are running. No one around here runs a super and it isn't as much fun running alone. The minis have there place and can be fun but ya can build a 2.2 for about the same cost and have a more capable and popular rig. The 1.9 class around here has become the sportsman class for the 2.2 guys (can't run 2.2 pro and sport because they are on the same course) and they got a ton of mods/$ in them. The newbies just run 2.2 sport.
