Granted the OS .18TM/TZ had problems but that's been pretty much solved with the RD Racing wristpin spacer.
Frankly there's no manufacturers jumping on the .18 or .20 bandwagon. With all of the Revos out there why do you think that is? I really don't know but I'm guessing it's economics and/or they don't think the SMT class will be around long. From what I've seen the growth of the truggies will be the death of the Revo racing class in the next 2 years.

This all coming from the person who a few months ago had the theory, "If it isn't a REVO, it isn't worth owning..."
If the Traxxas engines are crap, why have more people gotten longer lifespans out of them, and in a lot of instances, equal or better performance? Before a faulty exhaust pipe shortened the life of my 2.5, it would run side by side with most OS18's, and pass others.
