Traxxas is the Wal-Mart of the RC community. Crap loads of cheap of american designed, chinese made RC products sold for a low price point with tons of marketing that excites and convinces everyone to buy their products that are at best, decent as a jack of all trades and good at none of them with substandard product quality.

That Stampede is interesting, should be a fun basher.
I'm not a fan of 1/16 scale stuff, but that Summit would be the one to get me in to it. Can you imagine a race held like the ATV 4x4 races with "logs" and such to climb over all throughout the track? I think that could get kinda fun.

He he, you guys who only race think that anyone who doesnt race is "inferior" or something. I have 2 stampedes and LOVE them. Just because its not a 1/8 buggy or truggy doesnt mean its not a great truck. Traxxas stuff is durable and the day is long, easy to buy and own, easy to fix and get parts for and can be run by anyone.
And, thank goodness traxxas makes the products they do. How else would kids out there get into RC easily, then get addicted and want to try racing... how else would this sport/hobby advance if not for the entry level stuff. Never let yourself forget that its not the elite few racers who carry the sport, but the thousands of bashers out there buying the lower end stuff that funds the development of the high end race buggies you guys run every day.

Just my 2 cents...

This mini summit looks cool. I had the Mini Slash and it was fast and fun but the Summit looks like it could still run over some pretty tough terrain.
