You would think so, I'm the same in that I'm not that interested in one as I already have a couple that get run hard and I still race the CE on the odd occasions I race 2wd buggy.

But there are loads of people who for some reason won't buy an original even though if you look hard enough you can get a runner for £50-60 because they only want an NIB one which means expensive, and they can't order spares easily. These are happy to pay for the rerelease.

If that translates to £200 or less it'll be a winner. I must say I have a nib DEX210 but the next newest nib buggy I have is probably something like an intruder addonis.
I'd be well up for integrating a proper rc10 class into our races - keeping it controlled and not too fast (6 gear-box is a bit crap after all) so people can enjoy a bit of old school fun.
AE confirmed there will be full support and parts so it seems like they'd happily see these being raced.

Just need proline to release some 1.5inch (or whatever they are) high profile holeshots for the RHR dirt track.
