nope... dont like it! its a mutant? it cant race in the truggy class because it has a tranny, so its more targeted for the revo i guess? its not a truggy if it has a tranny. they even say "optional 2 speed" doh!

we were just talkin about this at my site, noone seems too impressed.

gawd... i just read some from tamiya themselves. ive lost all respect for that company! read these quotes..
its all jibberish!! lol..

"Tamiya is the first to bring this special feature to the R/C world. Even the connection between the engine clutch bell and the spur gear are completely enclosed and protected from outside interference. As a result, all gears have constant stable lubrication and gear backlash is contained by the gearcase. This means the Nitrage does not need to resort to using any heavy and expensive steel gear parts, giving fans more modification flexibility."

more modification flexability!! lol.. thats what were all looking for!! lol.. screw steel gears, i want plastic so i have some flexability!

heres another... what planet are these people from? trying to start a new race class with this turd? it cant race truggy...

"OPTION PARTS AVAILABLE SOON!
Both performance-enhancing and cosmetic Option Parts are planned for release in the near future. Keep an eye out especially for announcements of the 2-speed transmission that will increase top speed to 80km/hr (approx. 50mph) and powerful twin disc brakes. "

its like these people have been asleep for the last couple years and someone had a dream about this buggy monster truck hybrid.. its all about the wing.

"DISTINCTIVE REAR WING
The large rear wing on the Nitrage is a double-split design inspired by those equipped on actual WRC cars. Catch pin attachment means the upper surface of the wing remains flat, adding to its stylish appearance. Since the wing is connected to the chassis and not the body shell, it clearly distinguishes the Nitrage as a Tamiya product even when the body is removed. "

good lord.. it keeps getting better!! lol..

"WIDE-SPAN FRONT SUSPENSION UPPER ARM
Truggies from other makers usually feature upper I arms for the front suspension, which offer flexibility but are lacking in structural strength. The Nitrage has specially designed upper A arms for the front suspension that allow flexible suspension travel without sacrificing strength. "

gotta have that.



either theyre crazy, or theyre trying to compete in the mt class? thats no truggy. close... but with a tranny, so illegal to race with truggies. but it would race with revos........ that might put a whoopin on a revo at the track?


the last tamiya i had was a frog....
