I just see a noisy, non bash capable, outdoor only and expensive product that doesn't have a lot of pertinence in our hobby.
Im with you 100%, I felt this way, ever since XRAY started putting out designs for their nitro mini's. They were made for small areas, indoor, and light-medium outdoor offroading. I feel a nitro mini ruins the entire reason of owning a mini. The bragging factor is cool, but as far as fuctionality, for the price I would rather get a 1/10 or 1/8 nitro I can get use out of as the way nitro's were made for.
