Default New Model ..Maybe

I was just thinking that it would be cool to see a Hurricane GT. All that is really needed would be low pro shock towers, tires and a body. (make mine a scooby please) Yes I know I could just fit some parts to make one, but then I wouldn't get to buy another car

Anyhoo..just thinkin' out loud.

I wonder if you could take a hurricane and make something like ofna has with the 1/8th street car made from a buggy chassis. All looks the same except for shorter shocks and on road wheels and tires.

I would love to see a PRO electric line, have them come with a brushless system and bearings.

Yes, that's what i said I actually had the Kyosho Inferno GT in mind..as you could actually turn a Hurricane into one using kyosho parts.

I lack knowledge O wise ones. I think the Jato is 2 wheel drive, right? My question is : why 2 X 4 drive? Isnt that a lot harder to drive/control/steer? What is the advantage?

Two wheel drive are much harder to control, but most race circuits don't allow 4x4 in the stadium classes. At least around here and the surrounding states they don't allow any 4x4's in that class. I personally would take a 4x4 over a two wheel drive any day.

The only problem with that would be the price tag! People would complain the pricing is too high, but would not understand the extras you are getting! This is why i think the ready to modify models will be a big hit, because you can buy all the upgraded parts that you will end up buying anyways, plus you save some money because you don't have wasted electronics.
