The videos of the prototypes are extremely impressive. This is on another level from the Toyan V-8's. They are the same size, but this one packs way more displacement and power.

I'll probably pick one up in a year or so. Kind of waiting to see the kinks get worked out first, as well as how readily parts would be available. Would be interesting to see if any performance options come along like cams, turbos, superchargers.

Very cool to say the least but at that price, I could buy a nice used ATV.
Spendy but very cool.

Pricey but looks to be excellent quality. Hey you get what you pay for.

No need? Maybe for you. I personally am intrigued.

That's kinda ironic if you think about it. I'm sure many of us have much much more than that in our "toy" rc's. Maybe not in one up front purchase but cost matched over a couple of purchases.



Those little engines they make are cool for sure. If I had extra money for stuff like this I'd probably get one of their engines. I've been eyeing one of their hit & miss motors myself.

Always wanted one and I agree, we do pump a lot of money into our RCs.
As much money as I have in my second Baja 5b, I could have bought one.
