I'd love to see an EXO based Rally car but if it is, I hope they don't take a page from Traxxas' book and just mold a bigger body

We do have some history and mad-love for rally here at Axial...

Please let it be a Rally and not a drifter. Not hating on drifters, I have one myself but a rally seems more appealing to the masses.

Axial shouldn't make anything that goes fast. It will just break into hundreds of pieces.

Stick to off road scalers.

IFS with centered rear Wraith straight axle. Cross between Wraith and exo cages.

Axial loves rally. Check
Jason finally caved and made a rally section on RCC. Check.

Please oh please let it be a 1/10 rally car, or even similar to the WR8!

My 4-Tec needs a rebuild and I'd love to rock an Axial. Can I be an Axial Rally Team driver for the Colorado Rally Championship Series?

I know it's probably not on the drawing board but it would be nice to see a smaller 1/10 rig. Something that could fit in the c1 rules without modification. I'd even be happy if they just released parts like narrower axles and a transfer case that you could put in a scx10.

is this whole "New Axial" thing just speculation or does Axial actually have a new product coming soon??

looking on Axials website i see they have the "New" ridgecrest body available? was this never an option to get a clear shell for this ax10?

I can also see a short course truck sense the EXO buggy didn't really seem to take off like everyone thought it would. This way they can still use all the same parts.

ummm... exactly like that photo above

What It'll probably be:

Ridgecrest kit.
Short course clone
XR10 v2
Evo v2

Brushless KOH would be sweet!

I'm interested to see what they've got up their sleeves, they're innovators for sure, I doubt they'll just dump yet another SC truck on the world. Maybe it's an 8th scale? Or formula offroad?

LETS HOPE IT WILL BE LIKE ON MY DREAMS...
