Traxxas "NEXT" is....

[jhautz]

The only thing I could really see really NEEDING upgrade on the revo would be the diffs. Other than that.... the rest of the drivetrain is pretty solid. Hopefully they design an upgraded BL worthy tranny for it also and dump the stupid manual 2 speed like in the emaxx. Thats assuming that a revo is whats "Next"

If it is a BL Revo those guys who are selling Revo conversion kits are gonna be pissed. Especially Tekno RC who is just now trying to launch a pretty nice looking (IMO) conversion kit.

Yeah, that would suck, but "them are the breaks"!

Still, there is something to be said for taking something and modifying it to suit YOUR goals. A sense of accomplishment and having something no one else does. Stock is just boring IMO.

I agree totally. I cant remember buying something stock and even running it once before modifying something. If they just made the stock trucks better I wouldn't have to spend so much time modifying them. Of course... I probably would loose interest in the hobby if there was no mod work to be done. Thats my favorite part.

I dont think so, there will still be a market just not as big for the guys that have a nitro revo & want to convert without buying a another truck.
