Default RE: Thoughts on the new Traxxas Slash.

ORIGINAL: Chris_RC

But looking at the Slash and the Rustler I wouldn't get the Slash since the body looks so "fat" you could say. It doesn't look like a CORR truck at all. And does anybody know how the Slash did when on the Speed channel Sat?
I follow you on that. The body is a little bit rounded, in my opinion it doesn't look as good as the full size CORR trucks...

also, it will have less traction than a stadium truck because the wheels are narrower. and since the wheelbase is longer it may be abit unstable during tight turns.

but maybe I'd give it a chance and try it out, if the price is right. sound like it could take a fast brushless on 3S lipo anytime.
