need to see what exactly Ofna / Jammin is doing with there's, but, if the class is here I may get this too. My last outing with the Traxxas E-revo actually was quite good.

+1 on wanting to see the Jammin. I really like this slash and getting parts would be easy. My problem is I already bought a motor MM and baterries for the Jammin.

I am hoping the layout of the Jammin and Ofna is similar to the hyper 9E to bring the electronics as close to the center as possible.

This traxxas does look nice though. Could get more manufacturers off the fence to make some lower cost SCTs in 4wd configuration, and help them move some hopups too.

I'm hearing you boys about the Jammin' SC10 but the Slash 4X4 is gonna be a LOT lighter weight !!

I smell 8th scale tires, LST diffs and a MMM system in its future

Shot you an email Bondonutz. I think the Slash 4x4 will be lighter but, gearing may take care of any speed issues, and who knows, if this becomes a mod style class, anything goes!

still not sure why quite a few people want to drop a MMM in there. With the MM Pro on the way, other than a 6S setup requirement, not sure where the need is.

That is exactly were I think my mmpro is going to end up. That stock radio is going to have to go too.

You shot my email, what it do to you ? Havn't received it yet, maybe soon ?

I like the aspect of the much lighter Slash, should be much easier on parts when taking the big tumbles and hard hits that we all know will happen.
I have a Lghtning Stadium 10, Very similar to the CRT.5 and the dam thing weighs 6+lbs,tough or not thats a lot of weight for the little parts.
I think the reasoning for 6s is the speed freak in some of these fellas, and or Effeciantcy.

strange then? Email I sent was to get your address and paypal email address for the shipping return cost to send you. Got the mudguards in, should have it ready to ship Sunday or monday I am thinking.

Either way about the Slash 4x4, its going to be nice to see some more 1/10 wheelers out there!

If I can get a hold of a traxxas 2.4Ghz system, I wouldn't mind trying to get it to work with the Nomadio React. If it works, one less thing to chuck.

anyone thought of converting a 4x2? I have 2 of them, is it viable?
Importing a slash here would break my bank :D

Yeah, you'd have to either do a TON of mods to get the power to the front. Or just use another trans assy on the front too.
