Now just gotta wait for the processing to finish and I'll post the link. Does this feel like I'm drawing this out?

Just slightly. Really want to see it run. Any chance of a video running the strike against the slash/sc10?

I really wish I had my Slash there to do some true A/B testing but I didn't have time to prep my Slash. I also wish I would have had my Slash tires with me to compare as well. I don't have an SC10 so there's no way for me to do anything with it as of yet.

Ok, so here's the video. It's still processing so the quality will improve in about an hour or two and there will be an HD option too. Also I am limited to what I can fit in the "More Info" section on the right. The version that will live on HorizonRC.com will have more info including my track notes. But here's to tie you over till (hopefully) tomorrow)

+ YouTube Video

Sweet, Losi is going to include a clear body as well as the hideous pre painted ones they are shown with?

Because having to buy an extra clear body and throwing the RTR body in the trash is costly.

Nice Job Gary. The truck looks great. Great point about it being a Spec truck by design.

No, the clear ones will be sold separately.

HAHA! I know, just giving you a hard time.

I'm just not a big fan of the RTR scheme.

I just have to ad a clear Strike body to my painters stack.

Gary---- I just finished watching the video and the truck looks awesome. I kinda like the wheels on it. Their more of a black chrome.

After testing it, what's your impression with the strike's durability? I noticed the arms look overly beefy (not a bad thing). I think the chassis looks good too. Is there any one thing that stands out as possibly being a weak link?
