If it was an update of a current platform then they would just release it such as B4.1 or B44.1. To make a point that Area 51 is involved would mean something new all together. Could be either a new 2WD or 4WD buggy. I think it will be a new 4WD buggy with a new 2wd to follow before the worlds with both platforms sharing parts as they currently do.

Im pretty sure it will be an updated truggy because they updated all of their current platforms,sc10,sc10 4x4,worlds b4.1(new shocks just came out),b44.1,rc8.2,even the sc8.2,so it has to be a new truggy since it is the only thing left.

Ok I have to ask...what's the big deal with the metric screws? Sure for the international customers I get it but for US customers (which I'm guessing is the largest market for these cars but maybe I'm wrong). I didn't get it why the #1 advantage listed for the 22 line was metric hardware and I don't get why everyone wants AE to follow suit.

What is the performance advantage to metric hardware?

I could personally care less whether it is metric or imperial as long as I can get the spares. With imperial screws I can pull up McMaster-Carr and get all the screws I could ever need for pennies.

Same here! All it means for me is a new set of tools

why would they do that when the b4 owns the 22? i have a feeling the b5 will be a completely new design. but it will be a while. no need for a new 2wd when the b4 is still winning.

I bet that these manufacturers love this rampant speculation, it is a free marking tool like no other for them to figure what to put on the market next.
