I dont think so, there will still be a market just not as big for the guys that have a nitro revo & want to convert without buying a another truck.

I don't see how its Jato colors. All the Traxxas bodies are pretty much the same basic design and same colors available, if I'm not mistaken.

Well, as for Traxxas teaming up with Castle on the MMM, I doubt it just cause I doubt it.

However, it is not COMPLETELY impossible since apparently Traxxas no longer has a contract with Novak, as the EVX is now the EVX-2, made by Traxxas and not Novak.

If the new product is really a Brushless Revo (or an electric Revo) I will be very impressed, and will consider buying one. I need to get my T-Maxx and 18T sold first though, as I have too many trucks.

Personally, I think the water has something to do with a vehicle that can withstand being run in a wet environment. Since this would be rather difficult for a Nitro vehicle (hard to keep engine temps consistent, hard to keep the motor from sucking in too much water, hard to get brakes working consistently when damp, etc) I'd say its electric. I say this from personal experience because when I drove my Revo 2.5R through some wet grass, my brakes were HORRIBLE until it heated up enough to evaporate all the water.

Got an answer from the Traxxas forum:
"You have got to change you computer time zone to US central time zone first. Then, you will see the "NEXT" clock is still countdown about 5:30 hours to go."

Last prediction:

BL Revo, dual channel VXL deriviative ESC, BEC off one channel, possibily dual motor (tho I hope not). Advertized speeds of 45-50mph (on 2x3S lipo), but more expensive than a 3.3.

Some cool new parts, but Revo conversions will still be better.

:D

The Traxxas website pics of Jatos are always silver black and blue. Just look at the first web page where it displays the "brutally fast" Jato. It is the same colors.
