$549, estimated in stock early April. I assume Delivered to door around the 14-15 of the month.

Looks like this car will be a step up from the DEX408V2, the innovation of Team-Durango is amazing to me.

All 3 diffs can individually be pulled out in 30 seconds or less
Pre-assembled parts should help this car hit the track with less build mistakes.

**Note:
The Arrma RTR series are very similar in design but are not the same car at all, the Durango is Race Spec, different in many ways.
I'm going to hold off until I see if there are issues with that motor mount. I think with the pinion gear having to be so far out on the motor shaft that there will be issue with the shaft flexing and stripping spur gears. That and possible motor damage. The little piece of aluminum that the motor hangs off of is not very beefy looking either. Bending the mount may be an issue.
