    Will The XO-1 Be in LHS on the 30th.

    Thanks

    I pre-ordered it and can't wait. My LHS said they should have it on the 30th.

    I would like to take the day off from work, What do you guys think will the Hobby Shops have it on the 30th.

    Happy for you. The car appears to be awesome.

    I'm #6 on the list, at my LHS.

    In the past, there have been a few delays for some vehicles at launch. Call in sick if it shows up...

    +1, demand and the manufacturer's ability to get enough product out to the consumer usually ends up in some lead time before delivery. A little late for Christmas, for sure, but certainly available in time for Spring. Do I sense a week of acrued vacation time coming up?

    Let me guess: Trains & Lanes.
    I know they're having their break there by your brake drums. No, you're not invited.

    Before reserving one or before even ordering one?

    well this kinda sucks.

    I just got off the phone with some one from Traxxas and they said the xo-1 will be in stores about the middle of next month.

    He said he was not sure and it could be earlier.

    We have the same thing here and it comes from an overabundance of people that cancel after pre ordering so the LHS ends up sitting on a pile of stock. It seems we have far too many flakes in the hobby around my area.

    The fastest way to get one, as with any new Traxxas release, is to pre order it through your LHS. They almost always require some kind of down payment for a pre order.

    Looks like the home page now says XO-1 "Available late January" and also the TQi and link app "Available December 30th"
    My previous sig conflicted with a forum policy.
