Looks pretty good. dunno about the small diff cases though I'm a fan of the diff enclosed into the bulkhead and attached directly to the chassis.

yeah same here.. all HPI's are pretty weak RC's if you put in a powerfull engine and run them pretty hard.

I'm lovin this expanding truggy market though. Unitl I find something I really like I'm sticking with my K2 truggy.

It looks like a very promising truggy. I pray that they come out with an kit version. What are the chances of that happening. I predict that in the distant future, we're not going to be able to buy kits anymore. It's all going to be assembled in Sri Lanka by slave children to save money.

It says right on their site that it WILL be available as a RTR OR a Kit. So yes... there WILL be a kit.
