If they ever deliver on the promise dates.... they seem to be pushing back the dates, over and over again.

I think they look fantastic. They look as much like an ACTUAL race vehicle as anything in R/C right now. The closest to a PRO 4 or PRO 2 truck as I have ever seen... I'd love to have one. The body could be proportioned a little better, but it's 1/10th scale, it should be easy enough to fix.

The roof is too short...

But beyond anything else, truck bodies are relatively easy to find. I'm sure something could be retrofitted without much issue.

I was kinda hoping the Losi Ford Truck body would fit..... it seems to be the best "to scale" ST out there. I am thinking the wheelbase isn't gonna work out. Looks like the chassis has a longer WB.

Aren't those the Tamiya Hi-Lift wheels and tires? At the least the ones pictured are. Those should be somewhat easy to get.

I think it's really cool too. The body does look a bit odd...too bulbuous and the cockpit area is too short. I saw one at RCX, pretty slick.

Cool concept but I have to agree with dog.
He's an idiot. Comes from upbringing. His parents are probably idiots too.

The chassis looks dead on realistic, but the body......

I think Proline made a Nissan stadium truck body back in the day, it would look good on this truck.

According to their site, that was the intended body with the short wheelbase... early development. FYI. That body is the early Associated Ford ST body, I can't remember to the part off hand.
