[Overdriven]

Horizon (Losi's Distributor) has been doing the Bind-N-Fly for the aircraft guys for awhile now, nice to see it trickle down to us.

I think they were smart making it a higher CG, as "Slash only" tracks would be more likely to let them in. Depending on lap times of course. A thing to rememeber, the slash classes were formed with the intent of making an "affordable, level playing field" type of racing. And I'd think most tracks are like my local track with one "stock" slash class, no mod classes. The Strike looks like it was designed to fit right into that style of racing (it even has a 12T 550 motor), whereas the sc10 basically tried to redefine it.

Associated tried the "natural progression" of racing approach, and to blow the Slash out of the water in the process, and I can't blame them. But the sc10 belongs in the mod classes, which is its major flaw. What Associated really needed, and was probably hoping for, was someone else like Losi to come out with a similar low cg truck to race against. Another similar low cg truck from another mfg would've help change the CORR truck racing scene, probably pushing the Slash out in the process. But until then they are stuck playing by themselves in their own sandbox.
