It was a pre-release order. I think the last I heard was the release had been pushed back to September.... Someone correct me if I am wrong, I could be thinking of something else.

Just looked on the UK distributors site but there still aren't any details. Have asked for expected release date.

Truck is available in the UK.

Maybe LB are favouring European countries for the time being?

Visit the site of Rapid-racing. Perhapse it is a demo car. The release date is still unknown. I already have a LB F1. It took me 6 months to get it. Will I receive the truck on September ? I do not think so.

The dealer phoned me today that i will get my new LB MT on next week. The car will come with 2x selflocking differential and hydro. brakes. Willing to race with my supercross and see what are the differenceses between them. The new MT has longer wishbones.

who would want to pay for something that cost £1795 when you can buy almost the same thing for half of that!

It is very MTish, but I guess it is all of the higher quality parts (aluminum, pipe etc.) that make it worth the initial investment [sm=greedy.gif].....for someone with a fat wallet.

My only question would be, is it 4WD??? For that kind of cash, if it is not I would have to pass.

...................I wish I had a fat wallet, so I could make those kinds of decisions. [sm=tired.gif]

No it is not 4wd but it comes with all of the alluminum that you have paid extra for. If I was going to spend that much I would buy the MCD blue line Hummer; 4wd with three diffs that can be open or locked for about the same money.

Please have a look at my gallery. It really worth the money. I do not want plastic parts and have no much time on repairing them. The Lauterbacher is my only choice.
