Did not expect that!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I don't do touring car. It looks nice, but I still think Traxxas should've gone off-road.

Traxxas.com has actually crashed and has been down for the past hour with the amount of traffic. :lol: So, it looks like ANOTHER MSUK-Forum exclusive! :D

This is actually a shock, I was expecting some sort of off road, but I love the technology they've used with this. Esp the option to dock your iPhone or iPod touch to get real time data.

Not sure If I would buy one, but it looks amazing and at 1/7 scale would be on the large side.

Did not see this coming!!

Kudos to traxxas for keeping things fresh and original!!  :)
Also for completely teasing and misleading with their teaser!   ;)
Yet another traxxas mould break...

But a 1/7 on road???
I mean, really???

A new scale touring car, perhaps someone can explain who/what segment of the market this is aimed at? Unless its aimed at creating its own race class (much like the slash did)


UltimateRC.com Video.
Mentions some rather disturbing facts about this vehicle, including the neccesity to "unlock" this car for 100 MPH using an Apple Device!!! :sly:

My schumacher big 6 has been annoying me with it's inability to take 3S or 4S lipo power so this looks awesome.
