That's really slick, both shaft-driven and belt-driving models? I wonder if you can swap between the two or if the chassis designs are specific. The red anodizing sure looks good. I sure like my TC4 though...

I am hoping they come out with a version with a plastic chassis to keep costs down.

I find it funny how different companies anodize their aluminum in diff colors. AE goes w/ blue. HPI has purple. Kyosho now does red. Tamiya also does the blue as well and XRAY keeps theirs silver. There is a really a bunch of diff alum colors on all the high end tourers.

Looks like the same shaft car, but some updated parts on it. Too bad they didn't do what Yokomo and Tamiya did with their shaft cars. Low CoG. Hopefully they'll post pics of the new Tamiya Evolution V soon.
