Thats the reason its doing so well. What better time to have a poor-mans racing class. That is the reason I got into it. I have a family that comes first so i dont have alot of cash to drop on a r/c thats race worthy. When I heard about box stock racing with a $200 truck I was all over it.
In these tough times alot of guys like myself had to get rid of some toys. I sold my boat and my bike. We still need to tinker and have a hobby. I spent less to get started racing the slash then it took to fill the gas tank in my old boat. I hear alot of the same story at my lhs. Slashes fly off the shelves.
