Traxxas - RC Snowmobile Next???

Post by Dirtdiver »

Traxxas must have extra money as they just signed a partial sponsorship deal with a very good ISOC Snocross Team. What's next an RC Snocross sled that is RTR instead of handmade?

They certainly wouldn't be the first...there are plenty of vids of RC snowmobiles (a.k.a. Ski-Doos up here in Canada, the trade name of the company that first invented the snowmobile, Bombardier)...vids that go back at least a couple years.

They sure are throwing big $$$ around lately! They just signed a big deal with John Force racing in the NHRA also.

Once people realized that a Traxxas RTR had the same performance and quality as the traditional R/C kits, only they didn’t have to build it, the Traxxas Ready-to-Run concept became a runaway hit!


Hurr durr...what? Who's that lazy?

The only 'production' R/C snowmobile I've ever heard of were those ArtAttack ones.
