Traxxas Summit New Truck

[hemiblas]

Ya I think a lot of people were expecting a crawler. It will be interesting to try in on the rocks and see how it does, but the weight distribution is all wrong for a crawler. I think traxxas looks at the big picture, which means that as much as crawling is getting popular its still not popular enough and wont get them enough sales. Selectable lockers are a nice feature, but real crawlers dont need them.
This truck will appeal to the masses. I personally think my emaxx 3905 is just a bit too low in terms of ground clearance, but its the perfect combo between speed and stability. This truck will bridge that gap.
I will agree that I think that a single 775 motor is not going to be stellar, but I'm hoping that my 970 will fit. I wanted to go brushless but I dont think thats going to work for that truck.
