Interesting, some kind of independent suspension basher/koh buggy. Right now I doubt it though, as that's almost exactly what the wraith is, just independent. Not holding my breath, but interested all the same.

Anyone else read the article like I do? Do you think they are building something, or am I off base?

It definatly looks like they are planning to build something. I just dont see how they could make drawings and plan that much just for it to be a dud. I think something like this would be really sweet.

| I read threw it, I could see them throwing a wraith rear axle and an independent front end together. I bet it would be a blast to drive, nice low cg. Maybe a new 2 speed? I would hope it will be more of a KOH rather than a dune buggy style.

Besides crawling the shortcourse market is really booming right now, I wonder if they are going for a buggy type shortcourse rig? Of course none of the 1:1 shortcourse buggies run 4wd...

You can see the digital rendering of the image in the right side of this picture. Definitely a new vehicle. I can make out axial shocks up front and the red/white AE-2 wiring in the cab. Last edited by spunkysandoval; 10-25-2011 at 09:29 PM. |

| I am reading just as you are Jason! Axial has brought scale/crawler RC to a level like no other, I think it is time for Axial to take RC Race vehicles to a level(scale) like no other manufacture has done. I think we all love race vehicles, but who wants to race a unrealistic looking vehicle? RC's that look like the real thing is what draws us into this hobby and even those who have never held a remote! Axial is the company to bring us this!

I just hope it's 1/10 scale. HPI's desert truck would have killed it had it been 1/10 scale IMO
