Traxxas takeover

[AjDale]

I started this hobby with a cheap Amazon Haiboxing brushless RC, when that broke I went to my LHS and purchased a 1/16 brushless erevo. Went to a local track and destroyed the erevo so I purchased a Arrma vorteks 4x4 blx. Loved the size and speed of it! Eventually started buying a bunch of Arrmas and enjoyed them all. I have slowly started to find my way back to traxxas and now have more traxxas RCs than Arrma. Not sure what it is but the traxxas rigs just feel so much smoother and a bit lighter. I’ve got a UDR, XRT, maxx V2, mini maxx and I am currently looking at a traxxas rally VXL. Why doesn’t Arrma offer a rally car? I’d be very interested to see what they could come up with! Not knocking any brand as I own many brands, just tend to find myself falling back to traxxas….

They've never made any rally cars as far as I know. You could take an Arrma street car and turn it into a rally car.

That’s what I’m saying, I know they never have made a rally car. Why not though? They have all the power to do so, I’m sure it would sell very well. I’d like to convert a Typhon 6s to a rally style car…

Just take a felony or an infraction and put different tires on.

I think bashing and racing are the two big drivers for sales and rally cars are not as fast as race oriented cars and not as tough as bashing oriented cars. So it's kind of an oddball.
