You have got to one of the coolest wifes on the planet... She asked you when your getting one??? I hope the answer was something to the effect of "I just pre ordered it for you honey"

I know the mushroom bowl has them rules but not all of them do ive seen somebody racing a 4x4 slash with a vw beetle body with the other 4x4 sc trucks with regular sc bodys.

Maybe I should just ask for forgiveness instead of permission on this one.

Or,

I have four boys, I can say it's for one of them! No wait, Xmas is too far away damnit!

Seems like it will be available mid-december. So Christmas isn't too far off from using as an excuse.

That is what's called the SCB class.... look into it, it is a lotta fun!

no i haven't driven one but i have seen them. driven a sc and a buggy. it seems like you take the worst of both worlds and combine them. anywho... in box stock form, when the scb goes over a jump, you can actually hear the little guy go ," WEEEEEEEE!!!"

actually the stock brushed motor is making that sound but when a friend pointed it out to me, my eye were watering because i was laughing so hard.

It's longer and narrower than a SC truck, with exposed wheels...don't think so.

The thing is super cool but Axial screwed up on the price point especially if its just a kit. They should have kept it around $250-280 just like all the other 1/10 4X4's SC's. $350 for a kit is getting ridiculous.

I fully expect to own one of these, and I fully expect to either start a club race class at the track OR be able to race it against the 4x4 SC's.

It is just too bad-ass to leave off the track.

The scale light bar, brake bar, engine detail, interior, etc all adds up too. How much does JConcepts charge for an interior? Like $25 right? Light bar runs about $15 I think.

And so it goes, it probably is a whole lot of a vehicle for ~$350.

Too true! Ill race it against 4x4s at club night! I don't think anyone would have an issue with it.
