I've always been a little iffy about CEN Racing. I'm curious to how durable and available parts are compared to HPI

umm.
if a 1/10 short course truck has a wheelbase of about 330mm (HPI Blitz)
then your larger scale short course truck with a 520mm wheelbase isn't technically a 1/5 scale.
as can clearly be seen from the pic anyway.
I do believe that makes it a 1/6 scale.

that's assuming that both trucks are "modeled" after the same 1/1 scale wheelbase. What's also clearly visible is the drastically different suspension, chassis, and geometry. So, I highly doubt these are intended to model the same wheelbase in full scale. Additionally the FS version has the same wheelbase and is also called a 1/5 scale.
nice try.

is this actually 30cc? or is it only 26cc like the other FS Racing trucks?

AmmoJammo,
Engine is actually 30cc. ; ) We (CEN Racing) feel that the more power the better. We tryed the 26cc engine, it's good but the 30cc has much more torque / grunt.

Andrew, since you work for CEN......I am very interested in a Matrix5T (Truggy), but no one has had them in stock since they were announced months ago. I also cannot find any reviews on this car. Can you help me out with some info?? Also, CEN doesn't happen to be working on adding reverse to these vehicles, are they? PM me if you wish.

Streetfreek,
Haha, I still have my CT4-R, great car. Imagine how fast the new CTR 5.0 is with the 5.0 engine and all Carbon fiber. Its insane. ; )
Here are some pictures that have been requested.
