I think we all know that isn't a true "Rally" car. It just has a higher ride height and maybe more suspension travel for those rough parking lots out there.

It will be interesting if this car takes off like the Slash did. I can see smaller tracks, indoor or outdoor, hosting some great racing for this car. I think this car may get a little lost on the larger tracks.

However, maybe that's a good thing. Everyone complains now about stock TC being too fast for newbies. Let's also compare the cost of getting into TC compared to people buying one of these and racing it hours later.

Traxxas finally got the RTR aspect correct though with 2.4ghz transmitter and brushless motor. Even the ESC is lipo compatible!

Very interesting.....
