Thanks for all the info. I love my kraton but unfortunately too big. I’m thinking BRCC but leaning more towards a typhon just to change it up. And I’m assuming 6s over 3s? Same size I believe..If you have a track to run on, or a bashing area that is track-like (smooth dirt with jumps) they typhon is a blast. In grass and rough ground / construction lot bashing, it will leave you wanting. If you don't believe me, look at how many Typhons get wide mod + 2.8MT tires. With that extra $120 spent, you have a great basher.
Senton - SCTs tend to be love or hate. I love the way they look when they are hauling a$$ over semi-rough ground - the whole desert racer thing... But, they don't jump worth a darn, and with smaller tires than a 1/8 buggy, they have the same issue in grass and rougher ground. I have 3 SCT's, and the only one that gets run anymore is the one with 2.8MT tires and a VW Bug body (keeps junk out of the chassis)
BRCC could be a good vote, if you like your Granite. I have a Kraton and a Outcast. They have a lot in common, but they also drive different enough that I am glad to have both. BBRC & Granite should be the same. If you like the Granite, the BBRC will be a 'mini-Kraton" version of your Granite - smoother driving and jumping, not quite as wheelie happy, but still similar speed, toughness, and bash-ability. Only negative I hear on the BBRC is lots of people don't like the stock tires, so you may want to swap them for some Granite tires (I also like the Duratrax Lockups, and they come on a 14mm rim).
Also, Outcast/Nito - if you like your Kraton more than your Granite due to the size, maybe get a O6S/N6S. Everything you love about your K6S, but in a more nimble, somewhat hyper package...
I have 1/2 acre half flat DG n rock. Then I have cement areas. But I do jumps in my back n I have huge parks w grass or parking lots to do speed runs and just more spaceHw big is your yard and is it flat or is it around the woods?
