ORIGINAL: wookie_racer

i would like to see a kit aswell, but the market just isnt big enough for them. rtr are the thing now and that what the majority want, so they have no need for a kit. that is why i will not buy one form them directly i am tired of pawning off electronics that nobody wants. i will just wait for a used one to come along and buy it as a roller.
Kysosho and Tamiya are the world leaders in RC sales, they pretty much offer a kit for each car they make, you would think traxxas would wise up, at least they finally got around to it, the public has been asking for for a 4wd stampede for how long? Like I said I will wait until you can just buy the parts and build one all aftermarket, sure it won't be long before guys are buying and parting them on ebay, hope RPM, FLM and all the other good companies get right on these as the potential is there. I love how guys will say Traxxas has always had a 4wd 10th electric, the emaxx, well if it weighs 10 lbs, needs two motors and batteries and is the same size as everyone elses 1/8 scale trucks I think they would quit saying that as its not a good thing to have the worlds heaviest 10th scale lol.
