Traxxas should get a truggy considering the increasing growth of truggy popularity. They would really "hit the nail on the head" with that. I would also like to see Traxxas go big block with their engines too. Just my 2 cents!

They might do to the revo what they did to the Tmaxx and the lst, make a striped down model of the truck or I dont know JUST MAKE A KIT!!! Or make a new electric car or truck of some type. But I agree with the truggy thing, would be huge, it would help some many newbies in racing, but then again do we really want that many newbs at the track

I guarantee it will be an electric revo. I don't think it will be BL though.

Well, the Revo could ALMOST be considered a truggy with the new rear break kit and center diff that just came out. So it might not be a truggy, but there is a chance it could be. I'm thinking they will do what they did again(2.5R to 3.3), but this time I think they will make a 4.1(.25) engine instead of a 3.3, and most likely make a Revo 4.1, T-Maxx 4.1, Jato 4.1, and Nitro 4Tec 4.1(Jato and 4Tec would be crazy with .25s in 'em) I think that if Traxxas doesn't go with a 4.1, they will probably go with maybe a 3.5(.21) and make something of 1/8 scale to put it into.

these all sound like awesome ideas! yall need to tell traxxas what you think they should make next because they really listen to the customer. i told them i would like to see the revo converted to a rock crawler and the next thing i know the revo rocks project comes out. maybe a coincidence, maybe not.

I would like to see traxxas improve the revo and sell it in a kit with kit options for bashers and racers.I think the revo could use some extra turn in.I think traxxas should come out with a .23 short crank for there monster trucks and use an aluminum carb with a plastic spacer to keep heat away instead of the full plastic one.Traxxas should stick behind there engines more and give the customer a two year warranty on there engines like os does.More hp and tq, lighter, lower cg, more turn in and stronger rod and shock ends in kit form for the revo is what I would like to see.But traxxas should deffinitely keep the ground clearence where it is at,I like the ground clearence on my revo.Traxxas should stick with the revo, sponser big standard mt races to try and promote the class because the truggy racing seems to be all the talk.Unless they can make a competitve revo truggy.

Jato 4.1
BAMF,
The Jato has enough power already with the 2.5, as I learned from -Inverted-, it's a pure drag racer/offroad in a way. With a .25, that little thing would be uncontrollable, it's only a 2WD stadium truck anyway. I say they stop the line of Jato's at the 3.3, where they currently are. Just my 2 cents

how bought a 1/8th scale revo with 6inches of travle ! make something for bashing with a longer travle and more adjustability, so you cna lower it down and make it handle better, make the trotlte and stearing servos hitec, and make it in a kit so we can still et it at around $500, i would love for it to not come with a engin

Well if traxxas did but a .25 in they would have to put a metal geared tranny in, but it would be nice to get metal geared servos in the traxxas trucks and some better electronics overall.

I will GUARANTEE that traxxas will announce an electric revo within 3 months. A 1/18 scale shortly after that.

It's VERY small. A TMaxx or a Revo are 1/10th scale, a real car is 1/1, so 1/18th is tiny.

i say an 1/8 scale revo for bashing. that would be cool. or yea, put BB engines in their cars. but most ppl even swap out their savage engines anyway so i never mined the fact that traxxas put small engines in.

I say they stop making engines and start making kits like most companies.
