| Ironically, I saw one of these today. Thing had more clearance under the front IFS than my Jeep running 35's On what the car is...I don't have a clue except for maybe a new buggy since they don't seem to have one any longer in the 1:10 size. But did you notice on Losi's site that they are going to be making an electric conversion kit for the 8ight Last edited by Offroader5; 08-22-2008 at 10:55 PM. |

The do have a 1/10 scale Slider based on the XXX-T coming out shortly. I'll never forget getting behind a 442 on 20"+ wheels and realizing the rear bumoer on that was about 1-2" higher than the front bumper on my XJ with 235/75/r15's |

| Nope, it was a failed attempt to bring something realistic out..... Just another open wheeled 2wd truck with some cool features..... I have one and like it, but, that's comparing apples to oranges...... I just got back from vacation, you couldn't look around w/o seeing some 20" or 22" rims running around...... Seemed to be a bunch of S-10 pickups with them too. Kind of sad when you pass a mobile home park that is falling apart and see a Monte Carlo w/ 22s parked in front of a trailer. |

Hopefully its a competitor for the Slash, it would open up the CORR scene even more. Hard to say though at a msrp of $180, STANG KILLA is probably right about the basher/fun rc. Don't get me started on those donk things and the idiots who drive them. Sad when I see a car that looks like the ones they would blow up on the Fall Guy and A Team rolling down the street on 24" wheels. Oh and have you guys seen the other thing they do now? They put 6"x9" speakers behind their front grill Like its a fkn Mastercraft Funny how we all end up sounding like our Dad's. |

I think it will be a 1/10th 2wd monster truck to compete against the Traxxas Stampede.
