Wow... is this really happening? It's not April fools is it? I'm still in shock.

Is there a press release or teaser website, did they hint at price?

What are we all going to do with our eBay accounts now?

In the booth now! Will be at the show for a few hours at least. I'm wearing a work shirt (west coast customs). If you see me, say hi! :D

Its going to look exactly like the original.

They had to retool the chassis....was not easy 7 different processes.

Shocks will look same but slight mod so they no longer leak.

Idler gear updated for brushless.

Lipo ready.

Awesome....what a great guy.

That's great news!, but....will any of it be US made?

Probably not. But as long as it's not RTR, or even the tiniest bit pre-assembled, I'm in. If the price is reasonable.

Always more questions.

Do we know if the kit will be limited? I am assuming usual spares backup at all good retailers?
