It looks good. Nice to see another major player in the 2wd buggy market.

Anyone have any insight on the release date of this buggy?
Well there is already 3 other kits on the way from Durango. The DESC410R, DNX408T and DEX408. So Durango are pretty flat out at the moment but i think they did say 2011. There has been alot of homemade prototypes done to but they said the were more concerned bringing out the 1/8 kits first as there is more demand.

Some latest proto shoots from Petit thanks to oOple.com

Team Durango had a couple of the new prototype 2WD buggies at the PetitRC race - all hand-made by the master himself, Gerd Strenge.

The new prototypes are still a way off production but they look more progressed than the ones we saw at the 2010 European Championships. The cars were running in mid-motor layout whereas they ran rear-motor on the dirt at the Euros.

The cars have a very narrow alloy plate chassis with substantial machined plastic side pods - we guess these pods would eventually be moulded plastic rather than the alloy on the DEX410 buggy.

Perfer the narrow alloy chassis plate with plastic side pods over the Losi 22 one, save on weight.

This latest prototype looks way too complicated and overdesigned. I wonder if the release of the 22 has pushed back the release of the 210, forced them to reexamine there direction?

losi looks trick, but jury is still out on the performance
