AWESOME ! I've been extremely tempted to get the scx10 but now I'm definitely waiting. They really do just keep raising the bar for scalers . Nice scoop !

It's in this month's RCCA and for once, you're not

According to the squiggly bits, it's got a 'slightly longer wheelbase' than the stock SCX

What with that and the Dingo, they're pretty sorted

RCC is a US crawler forum, www.rccrawler.com

RCCA is the mag - Jan 2010 issue

And it will be terribly expensive to order from the internet. We end up paying through our necks here in SA for anything remotely cool.

Andy it looks cool even if the pic is a little on the grainy side.
