I wish AE would just make a 1/10 electric truck that would be Slash like, to the point that it was a direct competitor. I'd race the "slash" class if AE made one. And of course it would be nice for Losi to follow suit. It would be just like 1992 again. AE vs. Losi vs. Traxxas. 8)

Of course this was tried on-road bitd with the Gp12 class... :roll:

I'd love to see a AE\Losi version of this....but I'm sure people will cry out "not fair!" if the other trucks had some obvious advantages over the Slash out of the box.

Glad to see it, more tire options for my growing fleet of Slash trucks.

If the wheel base (front/rear and width) and weight were held true, and tires within reason, I would race my Slash against an AE/Losi entry. I was not off pace of the standard Stock Truck class by very much, using stock tires. I have a set of stadium truck tires mounted up on Slash wheels, just to see if I can shave those tenths off that I need. (yes, I am running a 27T stock motor in my Slash).
