Something new from DTX thats not a Vendetta (which I love)

Looks like a very nice basher, and the scale looks dont hurt either

Surprised they didnt go ahead and release a roar approved corr truck but not everybody races so it should be fun.

Not following, Leading. Not a sc truck, not a st truck just something to bash around with

no Im not degrading the duratrax stuff and some have made the most from them, but by the time you upgrade might as well have a more popular brand

They are an excellent 'starter' set-up.Definitely to be veiwed as a stepping stone to a more serious race grade vehicle.

At first I thought, It is what it is, they threw a short course tires and a truck body and bumper on an Evader. Anybody with $50 can probably do this to their Evader when it's released.

Then I actually looked up the specs and it's a bit weird. If they had done the above then they'dve have been closer to having a short course truck. This thing is actually a bit odd. It's long enough, but way too narrow to be in the short course class. Maybe put the Evader ST arms on it to widen it?

Ok I want one. For $140 bucks this thing looks sweet. Does anyone have a release date?? Cus tower's website shows "invalid part number" when you click on the picture of the Evader DT...

I have a team-cAmerica ''short course '' but its dimmensions are the same as this.I hope this becomes the next hot class because the one I have is a blast to drive ,basicly its a stadium truck with with smaller tires and an odd body. I will definetly be looking out for them, like I said :they are a blast to drive and the arms have a one year stress guarantee.

I have owned evader ext,,exb and bx pro.

The ext/st is the best racer of the bunch for sure. The ext needs alot of help while the older St or pro st is a very capable racer.

The DT is not meant to be a racer, it shares alot of parts with the ext/exb.
Exb arms,dogbones steering linkage
EXt shock towers

This truck is gonna be a blast. According to tower (I had to call) should be available mid-July

I wish this becomes a big class , like the detail.Perhaps this will bring duratrax from cheesy to ''ahh its ok'' status.

DTX may not be considered cheesy but this Toys R Us attempt at a truck is.
