Default Thunder tech Throphy Turck!!!

Ok, afrter flipping throughbthe pages of my most recent RC driver magazine i saw a whole story, on a car about to come into production from Thunder Tech (they make a lot of high quality rock crawling parts). It esetially an swesome RC representation of the trophy turck you see running in the Baja 1000. This thing just looks plain awesome. If it's durable, then this will be the coolest truck ever (in my opinion), but you cant really know that until you actually talk to htose who own the truck. So im wondering have any of you guys pre-ordered it, or are sure your gonna buy it. I dont have very much money to spend on RC so i try to make sure i'm getting the best wuality prodcut before i buy.

I've got one. It is awsome and works pretty good too. The only thing I have broken was a rear axle mount and that was my fualt.
Its for sale too,

When the production kit is out you will be able to put it together yourself. So RcDriver says.

There is a new version of this truck now. Apparently they went with a plastic inset tub and now have side rails and ladder frame set up. Still no idea how fast it is, or if it can compete against the RC10-T's in races and hold its own... Please someone shed some light on it !

Is is as slow as grass growing in the sahara ?
