Press Release states 3/2/09 ;-)

Got it. thanks
BTW, it states "ELECTRONIC COMPONENTS NOT INCLUDED". So what the hell does that mean? No motor and ESC but still for $669? Dang that's one expensive roller.

thats a msrp it will be way less than that.

I have that kit, but not as a factory one. Its the RC8T kit with the Associated factory brushless conversion, which is exactly what that will be!
If you can race brushless truggy the RC8T is awesome, but do yourself a favour, and get the Tekno RC kit for it instead. It runs the "Electri-Clutch" and moves the centre diff sideways to accomodate the large battery tray.
Its a fantastic conversion...

 

[Hyster]

So am I right? Is it not going to have electric motor, reciever and servo's?

 

[Brushlessboy]

$400 on Amain Backorder...
You are right, no motor, speedie or servo's. But $400, not $669.

I'm sorry, but for that price, i'd do the SC8 with an E conversion. $400 for a roller? a lil much........

totaly agree. I wonder if those who have pre ordered know there won't be any electronics? I guess they are die hard racers.

 

[BradZ]

Didn't somone on here convert an SC8 to electric anyway?
Was it Chip?

 

[alpinehyperlite]
