Thanks for the link. Looks pretty good except for the ill proportioned body and the lack of a dust/mud under body. |

Looks pretty good and should be damn tough. I agree though the body is fugly and the tires look a little large. Otherwise about damn time! |

I'm on board with the rest of you about the body...I'm sure a more scale looking body would be better. I know there are probably licensing issues to work out, but I don't like the cartoon look when it comes to bodies. I also agree with Ty about the wheels. They seem odd to me, but I really like the tire pattern. I'm really excited about the options that seem to be coming out. Looks like a lot of fun times ahead! Now where's our damn Rally Section???? |

If this Traxxas rig goes for under $300 (), then it might be in the running; I'd rather dig into the XV-01 if I had the money. But, this platform is perfect for people who want to check out the rally scene. Just goes to show that rally is growing and some companies might just want a piece of the culture.

I like the DRX but like stated above this might be the way to go because traxxas parts are everywhere. Plus it shares alot of the slash parts and towerhobbies discount codes. (- $50 lol) Do you think it will fit DRX bodies? Traxxas Rally Car – World Exclusive! - RC Car Action Last edited by KauseKaos; 10-06-2012 at 06:35 PM. |

I'm thinking for those of us with Slash 4x4s (and thus a shitload of spare parts) it might be looking into. Personally, I'm not that picky about how scale every detail is, but I agree that body isn't great. For me it's more the paint scheme, but I'm sure it won't be long before another body comes out (hello, Pro-Line?). You can get underbody covers, whether Lexan or the Outerwears that work pretty well. Hopefully they come out with a version like they did with the Slash that has no radio and a clear body. It may not be as good as a DRX, but a lot more guys race Chevys than race Ferraris ;) |
