It'll be revealed when I get home from school. Yay?

I took the day off of work tomorrow so I can sit at the computer mashing F5 on the Traxxas website. :sarcastic:

My guess is something like this from Ultimate Traxxas.com

http://www.ultimatetraxxas.com/projects/backslash/

Which I have to say, I would like to have a cheap buggy to take out in front of my house and mess around with and not have to much concern about. Really hurt when I flipped my losi 8ight on the pavement.:no:

E-Slayer would be the most boring, sad, gay, overrated release I've ever seen. It's even been done before by a few people on here. It might be a nice buggy or 1/5th but I doubt it.

Somehow I think traxxas is going to make me want another rc car. In a few hours I will know.

I wrote a script to press simulate f5 and take a screen shot every minute or so. :lol:

Who will be camping out in front of their favorite LHS? So much excitement for a Traxxas vehicle, but what if they disappoint you all? I hope this vehicle is great and maybe I'll get it so my Stampede won't be alone.

Edit: Forgot to mention that Traxxas is doing something really messed up with the LHS. They are allowing Pep Boys to sell certain kits which takes away some profit from the LHS.

They may be taking away some sells from LHS's but they are most likely bring more exposure to the hobby by doing this also. So it's a win lose situation.

stum 10.08.2009 11:44 AM

Ya pepboys wont have the full line or all the spare parts.. so LHS's are not out of the picture.. they will make more money on repairs and hopups than the original purchase anyway.

I saw this Pepboys/Traxxas display also and did a double take, I guess it has something to do with the Fabtec and Lucas oil slash bodys?
I can't wait to see this new part that makes a old platform marketable again.

TexasSP 10.08.2009 12:38 PM

The PepBoys thing is old news anyway. Most of the LHS's around me lack anything resembling service, which is why I take most of my purchases to the web. If you are in a nitch market, you should be on your game and offer awesome service, or why else would anyone want to deal with you.

lincpimp 10.08.2009 01:05 PM

Our LHS is also a lawn mower sales/service shop, so they could care less about the rc stuff during the summer. They do pick up in the winter, cause the lawn stuff dries up in the winter. He is trying to streamline the brands to traxxas, eflight and maybe hpi...
