Hey guys, emailed traxxas last night. Just got a reply...

Hello Cody,

We are permitted not to release too much information about our new "NEXT", so all I can tell you is that it is a 1/16th scale vehicle.

Best Regards,

Cathy Charters

I think it`s a new e-maxx . Traxxas told two years ago me they planned to have a new e-maxx by 2008 . But also thibk it might be a boat also .

I don't really like mini stuff that much, they can't really handle off-roading and well a pain to work on sometimes. I hope it's 1/10th..

Traxxas is just trying to mix things up...
It's the first mini, and im sure some of us will not like it.
But there will be some of us that do..
Only 1 day left, lets wate and see.

No matter what it is, it could be the best car/truck/mini/heli or whatever on the planet alot of the morons on this forum will hate it and say its a piece of crap just because its a Traxxas.

Personally I hope its a 4wd mini but who knows.

Maybe its actually a NEW car instead of a 30yr old chassis with new electronics and body!

LMAO, that is sooo true, but yet funny... BUT truthfully i think it is going to be a VXl 4tec, which would not be a bad idea. love the vxl system but hate where they have put it in. At least with a 4 tec being onroad it may harness that power.

Hey now, some of us still drive large scale cars

:P

After all, it is the only way

To bad that is only a micro-t shock in the spring of a 1/10'th scale shock.

If traxxas is coming out with a mini then it better be one of the following.

Mini Stampede
Mini Rustler
Mini E-revo
Mini E-maxx
Mini E-jato

i would not touch a mini pede, there already top heavy and tip over alot, a mini version will just be worse... I wouldnt mind seeing a mini E revo though, but i highly doubt its going to have the lay down shock like the revo does now.. so scratch that out it. we might see a mini maxx, why its got a cool name, MINI MAXX but electric. either that a or a vxl 4 tec.. i dont think they would call it a mini rustler. there might be a scaled down mini of it but with a different name.
