    No point in asking. You'll not know until Traxxas announces it, and they don't leak.
    I know they're having their break there by your brake drums. No, you're not invited.

    Whats the forum for?
    To have random questions answered without having to employ extra people to provide such a service, i would guess.

    You would have better luck getting the kernel to tell you what those secrets spices are, than for traxxas to let you in on whats cooking behind their doors.

    I know, it would be nice to have something to look forward to in the meantime but what ya gonna do, right?
    Traxxas start making dirt bikes! :)

    Nobody said you couldn't ask. Just that you won't get any real answer.
    It's pretty easy to come up with answers to the latest question, above.

    I am sure they are always working on something, but they are't going to say what.

    Ha, says you. I have an inside edge. But I'm sworn to secrecy.

    Oh and that Nascar truck in the link is a mocked up 4tec, no engine no drive belt, just a chassis and the body for show only.

    Traxxas has been working on better electronics and waterproof electronics in the recent times. Hint, why do you think they wanted brushless systems and waterproofed electronics.... I'll say no more....

    its doable. the slash 4x4 chassis should provide a great platform for a larger rally race car. the only question is is there a big enough market for it.

    I'm not complaining, just seems an odd time to have a new product release before the big trade show. I would think they would release it at the show, and have a truckload of them ready to sell right there.

    Kinda makes me think they don't have anything major for the show to release, but then again Traxxas has been very unpredictable !

    I hear NitroChicken will be at the show to release the new brushless 4-Tech in both 1/10 scale and 1/8 scale! Maybe he will put one on hold for Slowenuff... or not..
