I wonder if it will take baja gears or if it will be proprietary

I'm not seeing room for dual servo steering or a push pull setup.

It looks like a fast traveling beach ball , to square n box like , and I'm totally a vekte fan ,but this makes no sense 2 wheel drive , for $1600 ! Jeeeeeeze !!! can get the well established VEKTA5 for another hundred ,NOPE !

But here is the real statement....if its a solid ready to run platform, and folks like me can buy it, and tweak things to my liking and have an awesome baja...ill pull the trigger. Just hoping that I can grab one of the custom cages that other folks on here have if they fit.
Never building a baja before..I think its a great starting platform. From my research, I don't think I could build a baja RTR solid for $1600 bucks. Just my 2 cents on it.

If it can handle a Taylor 50+ stock with little to no modifications. I might sell my 2nd Baja.

Anyone have any "insider" knowledge as to when we think we will see this available for sale?

They mentioned later this year. I'd guess around summer, be stupid to release one in winter

Dang I was hoping for a late spring early summer release...August/September release....gonna test my patience lol. Also gonna run their own proprietary engine, Kraken K32. Wonder who the engine manufacturer will be? Parts look pretty dope. Cant wait to see the final rig!
