Haha Ascender...Now you see why I'm selling my SC10. I know it's a capable truck, prob the most capable as of right now that is. The Blitz has cause a huge buzz and I think hpi will have their hands full keeping up with all the orders. Being "in" the industry, we have quite a few insiders at companies and distributors and they all tell us that the Slash outsells the SC10 10 to 1. I guess it's the whole RTR deal or maybe people have heard how durable the Slash is. I know I've given mine the beat down many times and it's still kicking so Traxxas has to get props for making a very tuff vehicle. I know the Blitz with be on par if not better than the Slash in the durability area. A little bird told me that the Blitz out of the box is slower in top speed than the Slash, just due to the 12t motor vs. the 15t from hpi, but handles much much better out of the box and with varied setups. But the MOST AMAZING PIECE OF INFO THIS LITTLE BIRD TOLD ME WAS...There are 2 Traxxas 12T motors. They have 2 diff. part #'s and 1 of them is way faster than the other. They look the same externally. So, if your getting smoked in Slash, it may not be you or your battery or your truck, or even your motor....It may be that the guy kicking your @$$ is using a cheater motor and even he may not know it. Just something to ponder on!!!

Thanks,

Bryan

BTW...This little birdie didn't give me the part #'s so I'll be checking the TRX site today for info!!
 
Man, watching that video is making me really want to get one. Gotta start pinching pennies for that one. I already have some super strong packs just begging to be given a good run with this truck.

Looks like Soulja has his next project. think you can fit that 28 and mac pipe on that?:thinking::thinking::thinking:
 
I'd say there will be a nitro version, but who knows how long that is away. I'm really waiting on one of the BIG companies to make a 4WD electric. OFNA just realeased theirs and it looks pretty cool. I know OFNA has came a long way in the past few years making better products and snatching up some really good drivers. But based on the durability of the hpi line, I don't see anyone making a more user friendly truck than the BLITZ, not matter if it's Elec. or Nitro!!!
