Here are the two versions:

[link=http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXRRU0&P=7]PRO RTR[/link]

I had read before (on the reliable internet ) that the PRO Kit would come with some hop ups installed? I was just wondering if that was true.

R man, that isn't the rtr, that's just the kit with an engine.

o ok... cool deal. I just have not been able to find a LHS that actually has them in... so I am still trying to figure out what is up with these trucks. They look really nice. I know they have to be quality. Would love to get one by the summer.

Same here. My LHS in Austin, TNT hobbies, should be getting them in by the end of April

my friend has one and its a real screamer! his main complaint is that the servos are so expensive. he runs metal gear stg servo about 95.00 and the tb servo was much cheaper around 50.00. its because they are that odd mid size i guess.
some guys at the track say they think that it might give 1/8 buggys a run for the money. ill get one once i sell off some of the old toys.

its cool that they come with two sets of wheels. one is hex drive and the other (proline) are pin drive.

There's no way it'll give 1/8 buggy a run for its money. The only class that might ever achieve that is truggy, and that's only in the states, because trucks are naturally more popular here.

These things are so cool. Two of my friends had them on Saturday, and I am not saying on a big, rough, outdoor track they could beat 1/8 buggies, but on a tight, hard packed, indoor track, they are just as fast. One guy had a tg and the other had a tz. They take off like rockets and could clear the big quad at the track easily.

How much does the rtr cost and when will it become availible?

does anybody know?[]

Today they made us race the gas trucks against these things. Talk about not fair.

I got me a CRT .5 the other day. Got an Orion wasp rev engine to put in it and Hi-tech servos. Its going to be a real blast only, just after running it in I crashed it into a parked car and mangled the pipe a right treat.

thopper

There is no rtr out yet...just with and without the engine. You are better off without the engine and then pick your own.

Highpowerhobby.com has them in stock along with hitec mini servo's and the jr servos. Just cal, them great prices.

I have an O.S. 18 TZ in mine...

LosiRaycer

Just started breaking mine in today[8D] I got a .12 TZ 5-port in it and I tell you what this thing wants to move, can't wait to get it on the track. I run the races at our local track and just for kicks I gonna race the 1/8 truggies this weekend with it Gonna be a blast!!

Bobby33

The_Lost_Otter

Thats my next car. Does it use standerd servos? I want to run the O.S 18 tz. Is that a good motor choice?

Nope, it uses mini servos, though with some work you can get standard servos to work

savvy-racer

my brother got one with os 18tz in it and man its rocket fast. it handle like a dream on the track, but not on a rough track though. i ran with buggies and truggies and i think if the track is smother, this thing will give the buggies and truggies a run for its money. this thing clear tripple with a little more than 1/4 throttle.

I swore that I would never go anything smaller than 1/8 th again. But, after seeing the video of the jammin crt.5 on the ofna website I "had" to get it. I am impressed with it.

birel19

The new jammin .12 motor looks real nice, and it will be standard in the rtr crt .5. When is the relaese date for the rtr. I wish i could afford the pro...[]

http://ofna.com/eng-jammin-12.php

wait....is it standard? I cant tell whether its a drop in from the homepage add or standard equipment for the rtr.[:-]

I really want the pro, whats the cheapest setup i could get? I want a reliable motor, but i dont need a fm computer radio. What is a good chaep "basket" Of parts i need to make the crt.5 pro mine!!

The_Lost_Otter

My LSH has them for $279.99. Good deal?

birel19
