Traxxas known for their award winning innovative remote control products has unveiled the 1/16 E-Revo VXL remote control car. Ready to rumble right out of the box, the E-Revo VXL is a high speed 1/16 scaled down version of the original 1/10-scale E-Revo and is powered by a class leading Velineon 380 brushless motor that is capable of propelling the VXL to 30+MPH with the standard battery pack or a blistering 50+MPH with the additional NiMH battery pack and series connector. All the VXL's electronics are waterproof and allow For the car to be operated in rain, mud and snow. Connecting all this to the ground is Revo's exclusive rocker-actuated, long-travel inboard suspension/ full ball bearings; 2mm hex hardware; oil-filled shock; and sealed, silicone-filled differentials.

The technology, attention to detail and performance built into this RC vehicle is simply amazing. The E-REVO VXL retails for around $300 and is going fast! I can't wait to order one.
