I am really hoping that AE does keep pressing on this vehicle class. No matter how you look at it, there are too few chassis on the market that are capable of National level competition which is what I, as a consumer hobbiest, want. Even if you consider the SC10 4x4 competitive there is only the Losi, Durango, Tekno and I would even say the new Slash 4x4 is creaping up into the fight. Tekno is the new kid on the block with a very well thought out design. Both Losi and Durango and even Traxxas have upgraded their chassis a lot. The OFNA models are almost fully dropped. Krio created the Caster based Rapture now that could become a new challenger. So.....

It's time for something from Associated!

I will hold out a while longer. I am nearly 100% Associated now with only and old Traxxas Mini-Slash and a Jammin SCRT10 that I chopped down to fit the 4wd Buggy class for fun. I jumped into the 4x4 SCT class when the Jammin SCRT10 came out and got that competitive until the Losi conversions (TenT) started to show up. I order the SC10 4x4 on the day of release. So I am rooting for AE all the way.
