Looks like a great way to get new racers. I expect them to show up on our carpet oval very quickly; just as the Mini-Slider and Late Models did. Parts (arms, etc) look like they might be XXX and if so, parts availability should be great. This is important for new racers.
I have one on oder, i have the mini slider and mini late model, so this will be a nice at to the family. I also have a speed-t emod and a losi 8ight dirt late model. This car looks like allot of the same parts as the speed-t. well the xxx is about the same. The shock towers are the biggest thing that is not the same. I am trying to get one of the demo 1/10 scale sprinters.... maybe soon.

When i was young I had a Tyco Turbo Outlaw. This brings back a lot of memories for me and I've got to have one of these. It will be a shelf queen though.

Look closely -- the transmission is EXACTLY like the Sportwerks buggy -- NOT the XXX... The shocks look EXACTLY like the Sportwerks buggy -- NOT like the XXX...
From what I can see, they outsourced the whole car to whomever actually makes the Sportwerks buggy... This is sad, because I was planning to convert a XXX-CR buggy....

Just to confirm some of our thoughts. Todd Hodge posted on another forum that the 1/10th Slider doesn't use any existing Losi parts, so no changing XX or XXX over.
hey tom, do they race mini sliders at the rc barn? do they have a web site?
There are plenty of Sliders and Mini LM's around, but with the summer, 18th scale turnout is erratic... I usually have mine with me, but haven't been able to race for a couple of weeks.
The Barn doesn't have a web site of it's own, but racing results, etc. are on the Maximum RC forum: http://www.maximumrc.com/forums/
