It's obvious that Axial may be offering this truck because as you can tell by the pics that the entire truck is the full molded plastic tuber. I have a good feeling about this and in all honesty being a guy that builds his own trucks, I would love to own it as is provided it comes with a nice motor, ESC and Radio. it looks like Axial is delving into 2.4 and castle products, so who knows. fit this with a spektrum or Futaba package and there will be an onslaught of KOH madness going on..

I am with norm. It is a plastic tuber as all the screws are holding it together. Plus those are axials new 2.2 tires this may finally be the storm they were talking about.

With a 5.5 tall tire I would want a WIDER axle. Then it is still great for comp axles. Less scrub, we can use our other conp rig wheels then too.

Either way it looks like one hell of a kit or RTC. Hopefully some one from Axial will chime in to tell us a little more about this.
  • Super realistic interior
  • Low profile transmission
  • Offset axles
  • Moulded tube frame

I guess we owe a gift of thanks to King Bling for releasing the design and allowing axial to produce such a car(If infact they have done such a thing).........









........Oh and making a tonne of cash off it....

Wider axles and comp offset wheels are great if your building a TTC style rig.

Personally I'd love to see a narrower axle that fits better under the majority of the available scale bodies.

Until it's available, who knows for sure? I'm seeing this new Axial as the spark that ignites a TTC/Rock Racing revolution.

well i know your an insider so you probly are trying to tell us something here underyour breath.

but i hope your wrong. axial would be dumb to release a wider shafty scale axle. i dont think ive ever seen anyone on the forums ask for that.....


then again you know people would still buy them being the latest and all. they would still make a killing im sure.

Generis's axle cases will allow the scale builder to make a narrow version oif the axle, or an offset pumkin of the axle, they are in the final stages of design before test production begins.

But for this KOH style of truck. I would say the axles are perfect for the build, if in fact this is what they are planning on releasing. it costs a ton of money to mold out them frame rails.

I honestly cant see Axial making a whole new line of axle's for scale though, considering that it is their highest selling axle on the market, it serves a purpose and serves it well, and just about everyone in the market makes an upgrade for it.

I was just looking at the pictures and though the front looks like it has an offset mounted shaft. the rear has the pinion shaft viable un-connected to any shaft and appears to be a center pumpkin.

would be kinda cool if they offered different axle housings, and was able to use their stock bolt on stuff. offer a punken offset to one side with the axle stubs. then if you wanted turn the axle up side down to have the punken on the other side ( kinda like you would do a mad/force axle). then would be able to use the cases any way you wanted, and use thier exsiting parts to bolt on to them. about the only thing would to have axle shafts. if they were going all out on a bad ass looking cage desgin, think they could offer something alittle different but kinda the same, but thats just me
