Matrix TR????
 

Being a present owner of a Cen Matrix Pro and loving it I have decided to check out the Matrix TR. With that being said, I have a few questions about the Matrix TR.
Is the Matrix TR based off of the Matrix or is it a completely new monster?
Will any of the Matrix upgraded parts work on the TR?
Is there going to be a Pro/Factory version of the TR availible in the near future?
Last but not least, the all important question!!!! Any word on when it will be availible?

Thanks for any and all info you maybe able to supply.

the matrix tr is 80% of the buggy and most every part will be compadible with the tr except like the extended parts and no its not a monster truck its a truggy and it should be out in november sometime and i hope i answered all of ur ????lol:D:D

ps i think there will be a pro version later on but dont Quote me
and you can get all your CEN parts and hop-ups at headrushhobbies.com

RE: Matrix TR????
 

There will be two versions aside from the RTR. The Pro and the Factory Race. The Factory race has some trick hop ups. I am pretty sure about this. I had heard this from a CEN rep.

Thanks for the info. I saw it earlier this morning.
Already has my HS call them for pricing and availibility. Hopefully will know more tomorrow.

RE: Matrix TR????
 

MATRIX TR should be in either this week or next week. The container is here, just waiting to clear customs which can take a while now with all the extra dock security.

Be paitient, I just got mine this week and it is a working proto-type production truck. If you want to see it in person, come to Revelation Raceway tomorrow.

Come on now gabe... You tell us to be patient, then you tantalize us wtih pictures [sm=48_48.gif]

Man, that thing looks sweet. Whats with the white arms? delrin or something?

RE: Matrix TR????
 

the arms r white cause its the prototype:D

RE: Matrix TR????
 

WHEN WILL THIS BE RELEASED

RE: Matrix TR????
 

Almost seems a shame the production arms wont be white aswell, I reckon they look pretty cool.[8D]

RE: Matrix TR????
 

how much does the new truggy weigh and how is it on small tight tracks and also is it bigger than the current truggys out know and why such a huge spur gear 66t

RE: Matrix TR????
 

Maybe they will be :)

RE: Matrix TR????
 

The truggy weights about the same as the losi 8 truggy that the drake has been testing. It will be great on tight tracks. It is about the same dimensions as the Mugen, Jammin, and Kyosho. The huge spur is to help it pop wheelies (which it can do! SWEET!)

RE: Matrix TR????
 

gabe the reason i asked about the spur is because i just bought a second hot mod nova .28 and if i go with this truggy im afraid it will be over kill will there be other spur options and what size engines are you guys racing it with

RE: Matrix TR????
 

Any spurs that will fit on mugens or kyoshos will fit our truggy too. It is industry standard size diffs.

Most all of the pros are running .21's in their truggys to get better fuel milage. During my testing sessions I am running the NX-26 engine that comes in the Matrix RTR buggy. It has more than enough power for the truck!
