Default Big news from traxxas tommorow!!!!

They are saying they are launching something big tommorow. And it's not the Stadium MAXX. Does anyone have any suggestions about what it could be. I'm betting on a mini rustler. I could be wrong but that's what I think it will be. Let me know your thoughts.

The maxx stadium truck is old news and just another way for traxxas to beat a dead horse. It will be released the end of may. That kind of thing won't impress me untill you can buy it like the Savage SS so I don't have to scrap yet another complete radio system that will never be turned on. Whatever they are releasing later today has been under lock and key, no one knows what it is yet, I am afraid it is going to be a dissapointment though unless it is a truly competition worthy unlimited truggy or the like. In KIT FORM, RTR's are not where its at to be a race vehicle as they try to tout all of their RC's as.

I would really look foward to a 1/8 scale buggy from them, which would utilize a TRX 3.5 motor

They may do alright with a 1/8, I am sure the motor would be a monster, but I am a permanant Kyosho/RB guy for 1/8. I will never drive anything else. I just hope my sinking feeling about 1/18 scale is not true.

There is not a 3.5 (yet)......this would be the size that would go in an 1/8 scale buggy, if they were to produce it though.

I too am a Kyosho fan. I have my Kanai II that I am waiting to race Nitroaddict with, since we're both local to each other....I know he races his Kanai's as well. They should just discontinue the 1/6 buggy they have already, and put the funds into a nice 1/8th!

i would think that that would be awsome if they could make a 4" long nitro truck. maybe im the only one who could appreciate the effort that would be needed to build one.[sm=rolleyes.gif]

i think we'll just have to wait and see what it is that will be released.

you cant take them off road cause thay are to small,adn you cant drive a nitro inside,so a 4 inch nitro is useless unless you live in town,you can take it on the road.i live on a farm.so it would be useless for me.oh andd on a side note,i jsut thought youd foind this funny,i had a run away today after school adn it went straight for the horse,lol.the horse stepped on it.surprisingly the only damage is that the head is at a angle like \.
