New "Traxxas Crawler" - 08.13.2008, 08:43 PM

Saw this pic on the back of a r/c mag. Seems as if Traxxas wants to be added to the crawler seen...

Haha, I wish they'd re-release a 1/5 of some sort. I think it'd be killer.

I bet its something more of a cross breed - just based on the "One truck" statement. Didn't Slayden or someone else "sponsored" by Traxxas once make a crawler out of a Revo that they had in their projects section??

On Edit:
Found it. http://www.traxxas.com/support/kb_se...500&artlang=en
But after looking at it, its really nothing more than an extended wheelbase, wider offset rims, and lower gearing.


Losi 8T 1.0, Savage Flux - XL style, LST XXL, Muggy, 3.3 E-Revo Conversion and sitting outside 425hp, 831 Tq Dodge Ram Turbo Diesel. It SMOKES

I really have a hard time seeing a revo based crawler without some serious design changes, but who knows. It has definitely peaked my interest though.

they havent made a "new" truck in ages

slayer is a revo
e-revo is a low buck g3r, revo suspension and maxx driveline
slash is a rustler with a different chassis
All tmaxxas are the same truck with cosmetic changes and different motors
redone the villain 3 times
nitro rustler and pede redone
jato redone
revo and revo 3.3
rustler xl1, xl5, vxl
when was the last new design they put out?

People here hate Nitro, I love it. I start it, run it about 50 ft from me and it dies, I go after it. Perfect exercise
