I've seen the photos. It looks a little like an Xray or GS CL-1. It has a wider rear inner hinge pin spacing like an 8ight (the only other car I know of that has very wide spacing between these pins).

Tebo talks about the od buggy in this interview on RC Racing Radio

http://www.racetalklive.com/broadcasts/rcracen5-2.wma

He basically is saying he doesn't even get to keep his buggy yet. He gets it when he gets to the race then gives it back at the end of the race. Seems they are still doing major development on it.

If i was to guess id say this car will be the only car out there to rotate as good as the losi. i really hope he makes a buggy that turns like the 8ight but has a little more side to side bite. Any ways let just keep this theard up top so we can learn more. Thanks for the info kforce..

The car is definitely a nice looking piece of vaporware.

Odonnell needs to get this buggy setup and start winning some national events. Had a strong 2n place at the buggy nats but as we know thats not first. I think its time odonnell goes back to the drawing board and re work the front end on the buggy. hope they figure out the problems over there soon and get this buggy on the market..

Yeah, having one buggy at the race and only getting second is a complete failure!! Throw that design away and start over. And you too, AE, Mugen, Kyosho, Ho Boa/OFNA, Jammin'. Cen, Sidorf, Thunder Tiger, and the rest of the cars that were there and didnt even win.

i dont want to come off as being rude but i dont think this buggy will ever see production just like the odonnell .12 and .21 that was supose to be out almost 2 years ago. its one thing to build a prototype but a totaly different ball game when its production time that is super big dollers. heck just look at the vspec tebo runs that right there tells ya NO ODONNELL motor. i hope im dead wrong as i like odonnell products
