They're crazy. Sure, I probably have that much in my Savage but I didn't do it all at once. I'd buy a 1/5th scale car before I'd lay out that much on a MT.

I am pretty sure (or should I hope) that is just the pre-list pricing. I would guess around 750 since the single engine is what 5-6 Hundred?

price will go down more is my guess. they should betta overprice then underprice. when it gets more expensive u wont like it, when it gets cheaper jus sounds better.

Yeah, I don't see anything Revo about it. Do you even know what Revo looks like? If it had lay-down shocks then maybe, but other then that, I see nothing that looks Revo-ish. I think it looks like a cool truck and would like to get to see one in person before I made any real judgements.

They do have a single engine version, the lightning GT, this GTX2 looks mint, I'll be buying one, looks like people have nothing but good things to say but ideally I'd like more info on it, not much on the net.
