Wonder if the newly designed servo saver will work on the RC18 series and if its actually better

Might be a good platform to turn into an R car as well if the belt system is good.

Now, for the love of God, can we please get a factory team kit of this thing? :nod: I have enough XP2 radios collecting dust (I'm still waiting on an 18R team kit too :lol:)

Gear cover?

Yes, it has a gear cover.....

RJ,
Thats a great looking body for the SC truck....sure to be a great seller for you in the near future......TheToyz.com rocks.

Wow now that is pretty damn sweet!

Would love to convert my 18T to SC18 but the chassis looks totally different(with the belt drive and all)...

If its in a magazine it cant be too far out...but its not on the website...

I thought that was strange as well.

Who wants to take a shot at the street price?

Thanks for the ad scan guys!

I have to say this thing doesn't excite me one bit. It looks like parts are carried over from the RC18T. And the parts seem to be of low quality - the plastic bodies shocks for example. The body and wheels also horrible. The SC10 is the ugliest stadium truck in my opinion and the SC18 takes it to another level. The flat grilled front end is particularly ugly.

I also don't get the point of the belt drive system. This isn't an on-road car...

The only good thing about this new model and the other recent 1/16 and 1/18th release is that it proves to the haters that minis are not dead.

Do ya think (or hope?) there will be an SC18 class at the upcoming 2010 Indoor Offroad NATS?

:cry:

I think a good street price would be under $200. My lhs had 18rs for $99 a few weeks ago...$149-$179 seems reasonable and realistic.

You dont get torque steer with a belt drive layout like you do with shaft drive. Belt drive also tends to be smoother with mod motors.

I think the belt drive will be cool...it is sealed too so no more rocks in gears (hopefully). something different...
