Hopefully it's not Losi. Last thing we need is another $100 tagged onto the current price of the 8ight.

Seriously, we all have lots of reasons for running one car or another but for these guys, it's almost always money. Pay me enough, I'll run Duratrax and have a blast.

latest info on neobuggy is that he is going to run a new rb chassis but its unconfirmed, though if true it makes sense why he has not told anyone who he signed with.

has there ever been a buggy in say past ten years thats been released with 0 promotion???

I don't know about buggies but people are already pre-ordering Xray RX8's and no one has even seen a pic or cad drawing of it yet.

My money is on SWorkz which will be re-badged to RB and Savoya will run it. Where is my prize?

Well at least it "looks" Mugen-like from the cad pictures, but all of us armchair engineers know how it looks means nothing about how it performs.

Well of course you wouldnt. You just bought a JQ. But these guys do it for a living so Money talks.

I have heard the RB car rumor for a while, and forgot all about it. That makes perfect sense.
I'm sure it will be a rebadged something, and we can only guess how it will do.
