I might have to buy one

Traxxas Rally VXL

Thats cool, But why can't they do a E-jato. Rant aside, its an interesting concept. I was figuring a trophy truck like HPI's 1/12 before something like this

Kinda looks like a mazda3

Can we get a DC/Monster Energy Ken Block edition?

Just yesterday I said in another forum that you probably could mod a HPI cup racer body onto a Slash 1/16. To have an onroad car that actually can drive on a real road.
And about 24h later, traxxas allready has the rtr-solution.
Not bad...

But I really hope that there are going to be more bodys to choose from in time.


Edit:
This reallyjust is a 1/16 Slash with different tires and bodyposts and so on?
So, you could use the CD available for the small slash/e-revo? And the Tenbol mount?

looks like it would be cool if it was 10th scale. I cant wait till the whole "mini" craze is over.

wonder if they made a better servo for it the one with the other minis was crap

i agree with the 1/10 e tc been some time since traxxas has done new onroad

Well the width is right for 1/10 tc bodies, may have to play with wheel offsets though. The bummer is its too short for 1/10 tc bodies by 2 inches, so you're stuck with traxxas bodies. I kinda like the body, but I also like having a selection, other than colors too. I love the concept though, only other car that comes close to being a "rally" or TC you can drive on real roads is the Tamiya DF-03ra. Think I'll stick to my plan of mounting a Kyosho 1/8 subaru body on one of my 1/8 buggies though.

maybe some new racing might arise due to this little guy. Hardcore parking lot racing here we go! I am down. Swapping paint type of thing if you know what I mean.
