it does seem odd to me that traxxas has not tried to get back into the 1/5 game.
sure, it is not as large a market, but traxxas certainly has tried to get there hands into every major area of rc there is. even re-branding helis now.
Heck, if lowly redcat can sell a decent 1/5 why cant traxxas? All they have to do is lengthen the stampede VXL and put a 1/5 body and big tires on it
