Hello"
The guy at my lhs who is a CEN dealer told me that the GST has been revamped and is now coming with a yellow body and the 2 speed transmission. Can anyone here confirm this or is it just a rumor. I am on all the forums and rc websites and have not heard of such a thing.

Hey soil, I have heard and confirmed that there is a new lighter version coming out. 6 Plastic Drive Shafts, Smaller Engine, 2 speed tranny, Single shocks at all corners, 40 series tires and wheels and smaller body. The last I heard was it was going to be called GST 46 or something like that but I dont that will be the production name. but I did confirm with KEN @ CEN that is definietly going to be a new truck, they have no idea of release date, just that it is a current new project. I am trying to find the pics I have seen of it!!! I will see if I can get some current pics..

Thanks! I knew about the gst with the .28 , I will most definitley be purchasing one of those. The guy at the lhs must have gotten his information crossed up. I do want to buy GST 7.7 so I thought I would ask. How do you like your Matrix truggy, I cant wait to start building mine, I am in the process of gathering everything I need. I am still up in the air about what engine to get, I am thinking of the rb products or the radical 628[8D]

Oh boy, I just love my Matrix Arena, is killer quick and very nimble, turns like a barrel horse on crack. Those are very good choices on the engine, I do like the SH .28 so far it seems to be a very good little engine, responsive and quick!! So far it holds a tune quite nicely and no overheating. Time will tell tho....
I just sent an e-mail to KEN about the new truck to see if there are any new pics or info on it we'll see what he has...

One of my friends has the radical 628, and the machine work on that motor is out of this world, really nice looking engine and plenty of power for me![&:]

they should put the newer motor on the nemesis. i might pick up a gst 7.7, if the .28 version doesnt come out this year and if it does ill turn the nemesis back into a monster basher

Hey Blackrain" What did you use for a wing mount on your Nemesis? I noticed that my Nemesis is a little nose heavy on the jumps no matter how much throttle I give or how I adjust the brakes. A wing will help. Thanks

matrix wing and mount it lasted for a while would have lasted even longer if the truck was even lighter. but it realy doesnt need a wing a faster throtle servo may help with that

i thought it was just mine because i added the batt pack up front. soilwork i put some sticky lead in the rear behind the motor, he stuff for airplanes to get them balanced seems to work ok.

Oh, the rumors. how do these things get out??? 
As for pics, you'd have to ask the front office at CEN.
HINT: If you want this truck in your hands sooner, let CEN know. I made my push.
Just in case you got confused by my post
**Dogman is correct. There is a leaner meaner MT in the works.**
