The pipe position makes it look slightly off balance. Could just be the pic though. It still looks like it could be the best nitro mini to date. Like I said in the other thread, I'll definitly be getting this. I've been waiting a long time for these to come out.

the only flaw looks to be that the pipe sticks out of the body

Please, please, please get that pipe inside the body before production, then this could be the mini everyone else will wish they had put out. Exhaust on the outside is just a huge let down in visual appeal for me, otherwise I bet this thing just rips!

Yeah, minus the pipe sticking out of the body, this thing looks like it will own the local dirt track!

Yea, it has a .12 instead of a .10 or those really small engines.
You should get some kick butt power.
The pipe out the body, hmmm well it will keep the pipe cool. I think its a cool unique look, i like it!

i think they have no way of sticking that exhaust inside the body without either A.) making the body wider then the chassis and offset it towards the exhaust, making it ugly... or B.) redesigning the chassis to make the pipe fit which i doubt was even possible otherwise they wouldnt have done that

Yah this thing does look kewl! They had some pics on another site of the body off, but could'nt find it now?
Looks pretty tight though, so probably no where else for the pipe but where it's at now.
Are there any dimension specs? Would like to see it next to a Nitro Half8?
And I hope it is built to take the power! Unlike some other small scale truck/buggy

To call this a mini is pushing it a bit.
Size-wise it is more like a short-wheelbase 1/10th buggy with a truck shell. Not much smaller than the "normal" sized cars out there.

Forget the advertised scale of 1/12. It looks as mini as the other mini rides out there.
With a .12 engine, it is safe to say it will rip, especially if you can get other .12 engines in there...then it would approach the official rating of 'sick'.

maybe in a stragiht line, but 4wd will always beat 2wd on the track, not to mention parts support for jammin is alot better in most places than for the rascal, also the rascal's stock engine is restrcted to make it driveable, so stock i bet they would be basically the same,
