1/18 scale nitro pan car is what my sources tell me.

Bout time the pan car scene got big... too bad it's not 1/8 scale pan car, or even 1/12 scale pan car... They should have a 1/12 scale pan car on carpet class. That seems like it'd be fun.

if they were smart, they should release damn quick top compete with the new axial and hpi rigs. it would open a whole new racing class...... again. ie, short course.

why would they make it nitro? at that size i don't know of a nitro motor that would make any where near the power that a similar scale brushless setup would.

I am told they are using the 3.3 out of the Revo. The power to weight ratio should be AWESOME!

They going to lay it on its side to keep an uber low cog?

cbr6fs 11-25-2011 02:21 PM

I recon it'll be a 1/5th petrol 4x4 to go against the Baja "thumbsup"

clayton78 11-25-2011 02:46 PM

Traxxas already made a 1/4 scale buggy. It was a joke!

The feeling i get from reading that statement = my excitement for traxxas new releases.

R/CMaxximus5.0 11-25-2011 03:18 PM

I heard that they have 7 new releases coming out in the coming months.

Maybe they will finally quit selling their entry level RTR's with useless AM radios...:roll:

For your barbies? I'm j/k that's the first thing I visualized. Barbie zooming around the sidewalk on a Segway.
Oh even better make it a cup holder then I could drive it from the couch to the kitchen for a replacement beer. All I gotta do is hope someone's in there! Segway ftw!

dirtmonkey263 11-25-2011 05:44 PM

I'm thinking something 1/5 scale, but hoping for something similar to the Axial SCX10! Just not for $1k

so in other words its going to look like this

CuriousGeorge 11-25-2011 07:12 PM

Maybe they will build what alot have wanted, and IFS KOH car!

FRENCHBLUE72 11-26-2011 09:15 AM

My guess would be 1/5 scale to compete with losi and hpi.. I see the hpi has the flux set-up for the baja comming out for 2012???

I don't know that I've ever seen Traxxas worry too much about competing with other mfg's, or at least not enough to make them release a new model to stay caught up.

A scale nitro crawler would be kinda cool IMO

j-bird 11-27-2011 05:40 AM

Well it would be nice if it had 4.75 1.9 tsl's on it... Damn they need to make more crawler
Tires instead of all these new sc tires... Can't they see that there compound is on top why not go
Nuts with crawler tires that's where the money would be because if the release a new 1.55,1.9, and 2.2 tire that looked totally scale we'd all buy them of they was bigger than what the have

Every time you roll over you would have to start it. It would over heat trying to crawl, it would suck:lmao:!
