We didn’t see this coming!  Traxxas announce the X0-1 A 100mph ready to run RC car.  This 1/7th scale car sits in a class of one as the fastest off the shelf RC car money can buy.  Featuring a new Castle Brushless system and updated 2.4ghz radio system that comes with full telemetry (providing you have an iPod or iPad.  Also needed to unlock the 100mph top speed)!  Twin 3S LiPo packs are included making this a true RTR.  The price, looking to be north of $1000.  Read more about the Traxxas XO-1 here.

 

Traxxas say: 0-60 in 2.3 seconds. 0-100 in 4.92 seconds. Top speed over 100mph! Simply put, the XO-1 is the world's fastest Ready-To-Race radio controlled supercar.

Team Durango DEX408 1/8th Buggy

 

Looking for a serious 1/8th buggy? The look no further than the Team Durango DEX408.  This is not just a conversion of the nitro buggy but a fully updated kit with re-designed components to optimise weight distribution for electric running gear..

 

The Durango DEX408 is due for launch early 2012.

 

Some RC racers believe that 1/8 electric off-road is the future for off-road racing. No more will you have to be satisfied with a lumbering made-to-fit conversion for your old nitro buggy. If you want to be part of the future, the mind-blowingly fast and exciting future that is 1/8 electric off-road, choose the DEX408 from Team Durango.
