I still believe the one thing Traxxas has nailed is the new shafts. They are light, hold up well, and cheap to replace when the pins finally let go (the one weak point).

I'm also interested in seeing if the new center shaft in the 4x4 slash drives any tech changes in shafts. I've always wondered why there were no hollow aluminum shafts used in RC's - they are actually quite common in full scale racing.
