I have had one for about a week. Switched electronics to run my XS3 radio and had trouble with the optidrive (OD) system. Ended up jerking out the shift servo, OD, and locking it in forward since I am a racer and don't need reverse.

So far so good. Handles like a dream and has a good power to weight ratio. If you are looking for one, email Mike at [email protected]. Tell him Glenn sent you. He is selling them for $500 shipped FedEx.

I have been reading all the forums about it and besides a few small glitches that are easily fixed, it seems like a great truck so far.

yeah I have had mine for a week as well but have only fired it up once thus far because I have been busy with other stuff. The truck appears to be built like a rock and is visually appealing to me...I have yet to race the little bugger but that will happen in the not too distant future!

How is the durability?

I have beat the living hell out of mine and the only problem I had was the stock air filter was restrictive and got clogged pretty quick. After I changed the filter I did notice an overall increase in performance although it is a little toucher about its tune. The 5 foot motor cross jump in my back yard has been jumped much more also, I have killed many trucks with that but with the Revo I was bored before it broke. :hammer:

Yea, but there is a waiting list and then you get to add shipping. The price I was quoted included shipping via fedex and he has them in stock. Who knows when people that have not prepaid at tower are going to have a shot at their inventory.
