Me too. Even though i have never watched a single episode. What happened to the days when they just showed music videos on MTV? At least VH1 still shows them from time to time.
 
jeese if it is cheap enough!!! I would love to get a gasser to try it out. although I think that I will get the 1/5 scale first... unless it proves to be alot better than 1/5 scale..

can you run pump gas on those or does it need to be race gas ? i hope those are in a good pirce range ... nitro gets real expensive and id like to see how the gas powered does.. see how much power they bring anyone have experience in them ?

and is it four stroke or mix ?
 
The gassers run on regular pump gas mixed 25/1 with two stroke oil. I am betting it will be in the 1000+ range
 
when they do come out i see people trying to shove the engine down in a t maxx and many others lol
 
Hard to say when they will come out. It says in 2012 soooo...sometime this year. I mean you can try to put it in a T-Maxx and watch the tranny shell out over and over again. that would be cool I guess. I don't thing the engine will be in the same format as a nitro engine so you would be in the same boat of trying to put a gasser in one now.
 
I have to admit I am rather curious as well....waiting.....taps foot and looks at watch. Hope it goes over better than the Savage 5T
 
And I am going to keep my eyes open, thanks :D'

NOW LEAVE ME ALONE SO I CAN GET OFF, JEESH!!
 
So, I have a MAXX, LST, and MT2 coming up for sale...

Let me know about the LST. Might wanna give it a try.

Personally while I would love to get this rig at the release date I think I'll wait and see how some of you make out with it at first. Its a pretty hefty investment for a completely new line of RC.
 
doesn't look like anything new has been said...
