Traxxas now has available a new Short Course Race Truck called the Slayer, a 1:10 scale model that brings the excitement of short course truck racing to your local RC dirt track. This model is a “ready-to-race” model as explained by Traxxas and even includes the TRX 3.3 Racing Engine, an exclusive push-button electric starting system and TQ radio system already installed. Being 4WD, this model is extremely capable and fast and Traxxas claims speed of over 50 mph so this is one blazing RC model.

Features included:

Includes the TRX 3.3 engine

The Slayer has many exciting features to max out the performance of this race truck including, but not limited to: a suspension and chassis system based on the award-winning Revo model, full time 4WD, excellent travel range for the suspension to improve handling through the turns and jumps, a “3D semi-monocoque chassis” originally build for the Revo, and excellent looks provided by a pre-painted body with excellent graphics. The heart of the Traxxas is the blazing fast TRX 3.3 Racing engine. This engine is coupled to a 2-speed transmission which gives you that added acceleration you need on the straights and low-end punch on the turns. There is an optional clutch bell that is needed to achieve the higher speeds but the Slayer performs over 45 mph out of the box. Most performance glow engines also use tuned exhaust pipes and this model includes this as well as a “high-flow dual-stage” air filter.

Push-Button Electric Starting
