Garry Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 Translated - The Traxxas has just announced the new model car RC Drag Racing Funny Car Race Replica scale 1/8. The template-style dragster is designed for drag racing on tracks to be played in pairs with a straight knockout. The dragster races were invented as a form of spectacular car racing in the United States around the thirties, had a large spread around the sixties and later expanded to other countries like Britain, Japan, Australia, Canada and New Zealand. To complete the experience, Traxxas developed the DTS-1 (Drag Timing System) all'utlizzo thanks to a special laser will be able to determine the winner with an accuracy to the millisecond. At the moment, Traxxas has released more information about the model that is sold with the new radio control flyer TQI with docking for iPhone .

After all, they only do these: 1/16 E-Revo Brushed (#7105) 1/16 E-Revo VXL (#7107) 1/16 Grave Digger (#7202A) 1/16 Slash 4X4 Brushed (#7005) 1/16 Slash 4X4 VXL (#7009) 1/16 Summit (#7205) 1/16 Summit VXL (#7207) Bandit (#2405) Bandit VXL (#2407) E-Maxx (#3903) E-Maxx Brushless (#3908) E-Revo (#5603) E-Revo Brushless (#5608) Ford F-150 SVT Raptor (#5806) Monster Jam Replicas (#3602) Rustler (#3705) Rustler VXL (#3707) Slash 4X4 (#6808) Slash 4X4 Platinum (#6804) Slash 4X4 Ultimate w/TQi System (#6807) Slash VXL (#5807) Slash w/ TQ AM radio (#5805) Slash w/ TQi 2.4GHz Radio (#5803) Stampede (#3605) Stampede 4X4 VXL (#6708) Stampede VXL (#3607) Summit (#5607) On-Road 1/16 Ford Fiesta (#7305) 1/16 Ford Mustang Brushed (#7303) 1/16 Ford Mustang VXL (#7304) 1/16 Kyle Busch Race Replica (#7320) 1/16 Kyle Busch Race Replica (#7321) Ken Block Fiesta (Brushed) (#7308) Ken Block Gymkhana Fiesta (#7309) XO-1 (#6407) And the dragster makes 9.

Si Coe Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 Yes. They don't make enough off-roaders. After all, they only do these: But yep, there's a big hole in their off-roaders they need to plug. More off-roaders please Traxxas, 27 isn't enough! Yes - but the range really only consists of the Rustler platform (Stampede, Bandit, Slash etc), Slash 4x4 platform and the E-Revo platform in 1/10th and 1/16th. Thats 3-4 basic designs - the rest are variations on them. Tamiya have vastly more platforms just in on-road! The dragster isn't likely to be XO based - its more likely to be a Rwd since there is little point wasting power driving front wheels that are up in the air! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garry Posted April 2, 2012 Author Share Posted April 2, 2012 Choose your model from the winningest team in Drag Race History, 17X champion John Force Racing. Cubic-inch for cubic-inch, no motorsport offers as much sheer power and performance as NHRA drag racing. A single funny car produces more horsepower than the first 8 rows of cars in a stock-car race. Drivers pull more than five Gs when they launch, accelerating faster than a fighter jet. Over 300mph is achieved in about the time it takes to read this sentence. The Traxxas NHRA Funny Car Race Replica brings it all to life the Traxxas way with outrageous horsepower, intense speed, and the unmatched realism and authenticity that only comes from being both fans and dedicated participants in NHRA drag racing. The Traxxas NHRA Funny Car accurately captures the total racing experience with realistic staging action on the start line. After your burnout, shake up your opponent by being the last one to roll into the stage beam. When the lights go green, release the launch control for a perfect reaction time.

Dom C Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 (edited) Wonder how many of those rebadged mmp's they smoked when spinning the wheels like that i was half expecting to see a load of smoke pour out of it. That drag timing thing is interesting though... Edited April 2, 2012 by domcharlton Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
