Yup. SC44. Has to be... There are rumors that there were Team Drivers in Cali doing some testing with them advising people they would be coming out "soon".

I was hoping for the B5 so I could pick up a B4 cheap! Never a better time find a great deal than when everyone wants the latest and greatest.

So, will the 4x4 be a reworked B44 or a design based on the current SC10? I'm guessing the B44 (more cost effective) which means belt drive - AE seems to prefer belt driven over shaft driven now.

Another SLASH killer either way.

:oops: My mistake...I must have been thinking of the new on-road stuff and 1/18th off-road RTRs and kits. Great, now there's another 'Wish List" item for me.

Charlie, you're too quick....didn't even give enough time to edit my post!

Why not an electric Monster Truck built for speed and jumps? It would be a great boost in their revenue. OK: Let's say, they want to stay true to their racing heritage and try to break in a new class(or revive an old one), go 4wd dirt oval racer. I know many members will roll their eyes at these suggestions(not to mention I'm sure the cat is out of the bag by now), but wouldn't it be nice to see?? :idea: :D
