Doors open on the link, but I can't see anything. Is the silhouette a new (B5) or old (RC10) buggy
I am not here cause I am playing photographer and on my mountain bike.

Just saw their page and the siluette does have a hint of 1/10 buggy, but we could get suprissed with an new 1/8. 1/10 is more logical considering the REEDY Race is just around the corner. Fingers crossed for the 1/10 buggy.

Just for grins I downloaded the picture on to my galaxy s4 and played around with the color. Still can't tell a lot, but a little more is revealed. Front tires look pretty wide for 2wd buggy, but you guys may know better than me.

I remember when Schumacher had the Top Cat all covered up in the ads and nobody could figure out what it was going to be.

Now that I look at it on a bigger screen, it definitely looks like a 2wd buggy.

i have been playing around with the exposure a little bit and got this picture that is just a little more revealing just not too much detail. I don't see the B4 style shock tower so this may not be a B4.2.3.4.5 like some people are thinking.

I think its still possible it could be a 1/8... Looks like the silhouette might have been photoshopped to "Look" like a 2wd. If you look right above the arms you can't really see the shocks and how it all looks... And it also has squared up the top of the car. I think it could be done up to "Look" like a 2wd possibly. :mrgreen:

Too narrow for the 1/8, no room for a strong diff, but I do know they have a new 1/8 in the works too! :wink: :mrgreen:

Well... I talked to.... Someone today..... and that person said they expected people to manipulate the preview like this. They wanted people to talk about it and create more hype.... So the Silhouette could be nothing in the grand scheme of things.

Yeah, the more I thought about it the more I thought the same thing. It would be kind of silly to release a silhouette pic of the real thing...

True the more I looked and messed with the picture it appears to be missing some elements.
