I think Nikko maybe did a Patriot somewhere with the dictator and diplomat
I kind of like the old Kyosho, Sky Bomber, Super Bomber and Aerostreak.
Mind you whoever named the Nikoo Dandy dash wants a slap :shock:

But I guess the all time favorite name for a car is "It's Mine". :D

The car was an optima knock off...I would call it a clone, but that would be giving it too much credit...

I have to agree with scr8p...Dominator, with Intimidator a close second...

Oh yeah, that one slipped my mind. Talk about a car that was named after what it was. Great name, great car.

Let's not talk about the Dominator(I can't find one :cry: ) After thinking about this a bit more I do really like "The Razor". Great name that matches the car(whether you like it or not). The Slash is actually a pretty cool name too. Just chalk another one up for the Traxxas marketing team. I had a Thunder Shot and you're right Chick it's a pretty cool name. Probably the reason I bought it. Didn't do to well next to the YZ10s I was racing it against though. :oops: I had a pretty limited budget growing up.

Smitty,

Please forgive me Tarantula is as well but it was really more to chime in and add my .02$ also to get the creativity flowing. I was thinking about the "Land Jump" and "Vanning" not great or really descriptive names but really unique cars and of course in the 80's add a turbo to anything and it was somehow better kind of like extreme now.
