Lulz, imagine what'll happen when everyone has roasted their tires after the first run and the specialty-sized, ratio-specific replacements are listed "out of stock"

Agreed. They should have made them wider, but the same diameter. At least that way, you could use a set of front tires on the rear if that was your only option.

They just get another 1/8 GT wheel/tire combo.

And then what, explode a diff when all four tires are the same diameter?

Maybe? I have no idea, but it's probable. That's why it's a good idea to get three or four spares when you start running. Same as with any car you take out for speed rips - always make sure you have loads of spare parts.

This is undoubtedly one of the coolest car designs to ever come out. Not even considering whats underneath the body, it just looks awesome. Shades of Pro Touring, Mad Max, Gittin Hooning, I see all of those influences. And more.

And as for the running gear, and electronics? Give me a break. This is state of the art bad ass'ness. 80 mph out of the box. And that's just the beginning. Look at what people have been doing with the Infraction and Limitless (basically the same chassis) on Youtube. Running up to 160 mph with modifications. Unreal.

I like to call it... Dragstang.

This is, in my opinion, hands down the best looking RC vehicle on the market right now.

I first saw it on RCSparks and I assumed it was a custom build in the thumbnail. Then when he said it was a RTR Arrma it immediately went to the top of my want to buy list. It looks amazing.

AMain did a video on it and the guy got it to GPS at 85 with the included pinion swap. That’s nuts.

Once I have some space I’m definitely going to buy this thing because it just looks amazing!!

I watched the video aswell. We're going to have to get diffs of equal tooth count to run symmetrical tires on both front and rear.

Mine's been pre-ordered and now I just have to wait for release day.

Update: Did a bit of digging and they are using two different diff sets. If you want to go with aftermarket tires, pick up a 42t diff set for higher speeds/drag racing or 45t for all-around hooning.

I would have to agree I pulled the trigger first day it became available. I'll be driving my Infraction until the rear wheels become available.

Just got a call from the hobby store - mine is in, but I can't get it til the weekend.

so. much. overtime.

cudacharger: Nice! I like the decals you added to the rims.

Here is mine so far, it's a work in progress.

Got it today.

You like how it takes up the whole top of the book case?
