I was talking about this today after looking over that Pro X (a very tidy looking car too), and I reckon Ansmann need to do one more thing to really upset the apple cart and seriously open up 10th offroad to newcomers. That is to offer another version of the RTR Madrat, this time with a brushless system (I suggest a copy of the 9t 35A Ezrun as this is fast, simple, robust and very cheap) in a whole package for not much over £150. Or more specifically a club level competitive car available RTR for less than a B4FT kit costs.
Do that and you are looking at the next Topcat/Cougar - Old timers will remember the days when Schumacher cars dominated 2wd not because they were better than the American Rc10s or Jrx's (they weren't) but because they were half the price!
