GS Racing has a mini 4wd coming out to rival the TLT. Not sure if anyone else has seen this before. Does anybody know anything. It looks like it has potential.

here's the link:

Searched far and wide and can't find any more info. I dunno it looks cool to me. I think it would be easy to stretch the wheelbase and turn it into a crawler tho. I just came across it one day and thought I'd share it here. I will likely get a TLT tho

that pic has been out a while. I think they are like the pti monster. They were designed but never put into production.

The pti is going to come out into production. I read it at one18th.com 's forum. I dont no if that is the link, but it was something like that.

Ive also read over at 18th.com. But ptis monster has "been on its way into production" for the past what like year or so? Im sure at one time they had plans and were going to start production but it seems that something will keep them from ever makin a production model. Im going to assume the same happened with this truck. It made a public debut at a convention a while back as just a prototype and not much has been seen of it since and no progress has been reported. Sound familar?

Now im not sayin its not gonna happen cuz i cant predict the future anymore ( :D ) but it seems like its goin down the same road as a pti monster.

Also this thing "came out" before the tlt. At least those pics were released before the tlt was. I dont think it would be a match for the tlt. More like competition for the vemon mini giant. I mean the tlt is bigger, made of mostly metal and uses a 540 motor. This looks like an all plastic truck that would run off more of a venom mini giant sized motor. But i could be wrong.
