Most times yes but this time it was just because we were hanging out and talking candidly.

I’m excited for this one. The 1.9 Wraith was great IMO but I’m guessing that this one has a lot more potential. The Wraith was held back in ways because of restriction from previous models being carried over. This one appears to be almost all new from what can be seen. Other than some Icon shocks that were on it (big bore). But I don’t know what will come on the car since it also had VP wheels, Proline tires and Rich’s matching custom paint like all his other trucks. So it was obviously massaged some from bone stock.

Good, prefer look more like 2-seat promod/Bomber cage, that Lasernut/JHF style loooks terrible imo!

I'm hearing the Twilight Zone theme music in my head!

And, at least Harley said SOMETHING!

Thumbs up Re: The unofficial official axial portal buggy.

During my sneak peek at Axialfest 2019, Brad from Horizon said only two things and then went silent while I continued to preview.



1. There is no name for this new vehicle.

2. It will be released in production sometime in 2019.





The rest is left to personal interpretation. The portal axles appear to be wider than standard 1.9 AR44 width and they are F9 looking, plastic and had Currie name on the rear diff housing. The font end is funky looking and there was a fuel cell in the rear section of the cage, the interior tray reminds me of the bomber (two molded driver/passenger with helmets) but not as wide as the bomber interior. The frame is all-tube, so like the bomber and wraith. To me, this new model looks like a combination of the bomber and wraith but does have its own unique look and is sleeker in the rear then the wraith. I'd say it would be a nice one to have once it comes out.

Hmmm... Déjà vu. Does that mean this new truck will have some déjà vu as well?
