It looks like we’re got ourselves a race. HPI Racing just leaked a few pics of their new Apache C1 flux. I did a little research and found some links prepositioned within HPI for a Apache C1 and an Apache SC, presumably referring to “Class 1″ and “Short Course”.
After being hard up for days looking for details about the new Axial EXO Terra Buggy we finally sent out our undercover correspondent to get us the details we’ve all been waiting for. Armed with a badge into the 2011 SEMA Show and his trusty tape measure he was promptly kicked out of the first booth he found that had the EXO Terra Buggy displayed, seems they didn’t want to reveal the specs to us. Not wanting to give up he tried the next booth and was able to get us the info we have been craving.
Axial has knocked it out of the park with this new release, the Axial EXO Terra Buggy. Just days ago we published an article eluding to what we thought this vehicle might be. As it turns out we weren’t too far off the mark. With the SEMA show kicking off today Axial has teamed up with a number of companies to help release the new EXO Terra Buggy.
Tonight I got home from work and running errands and sat down in front of my computer to do some catching up on RCC. I did my nightly rounds on all the sites, then like I always do I headed over to the Axial blog to see if maybe Brad has built something new or added any new tech. To my surprise I see a new article about Racers Only Motorsports Designs
