If you're going for comp.crawling I would pick the sport.
If you're going for trailing, climbing and rock-crawling, the trx-6 is my vehicle of choise..

For what it's worth, the Bronco/Blazer would be to me as the Defender, it's just a tiny bit shorter.. But for me the Defender is not going to get a lot of usage in the future, coz' that trx-6 outclimbs my Defender even if the Defender got first class tires and heavier axles and stuff while the trx-6 sits on original axles and wheels, it's just mindblowingly good. The only thing you can put a finger on is the turning radius, but then again the turning radius is far better than I expected, so not even there it kills the fun..

So for my usage in the future I'm going to use the trx-6 for trailing and hauling the sport to the tight crawler tracks. The Defender-chassis..? Collecting dust I guess..

I put the aluminum rock sliders on my TRX-6. Now it slides over everything easier, looks tons better, and provides another stiff spot to pick it up.

I’ve got a brand new extra set for anyone interested.

It looks like I'm not alone in going deep..

I started with TRX6, which is awesome, but I quickly got a TRX4 defender for two reasons. 1. The guys I was crawling with both had trx4s and 2. I really like messing around with mods and making different bodies etc. It is more fun to beat your buddies using the same chassis.

The Defender chassis quickly became a fairly heavily modded Jeep bodied heavy crawler, so I bought a TRX4 Blazer (I wanted a short wheel base for more body options), and went at it differently, a lower weight build, going for low cg by removing weight up top and not adding all the brass. I also want a platform to play with the trax (they wont fit with the brass portals).

The TRX6 climbs like crazy right out of the box, but obviously its harder to get in and out of tight technical lines.
