The full-scale Short-Course Race Trucks embody the spirit of Traxxas R/C with their extreme 900 horsepower racing engines full-throttle, dirt-roosting power slides, giant suspension travel, and Supercross-style big-air jumps. The Traxxas Slash brings all the action home so you can experience the high-speed head-to-head competition at the track or in your own backyard. The Slash was inspired by the TORC? (THE Traxxas Off-Road Championship?) Pro 2WD class. The Pro 2WD class specifies rear-wheel drive trucks purpose built to fly over jumps and rip full-throttle through the turns. The Traxxas Slash hangs it out for an all new way to challenge your driving skills. The 4-wheel independent suspension has been carefully tuned to replicate the Pro 2 driving and handling experience as closely as possible. The scale appearing tires provide just the right amount of bite and thick, blinding clouds of dirt roost.

The Slash 2WD RTR is a beast, and that's a great thing. Right out of the box, you only need to scrounge up 4 AA's and you're almost ready to go. I say almost, because you have to wait 7 to 8 hours to charge the 7cell 8.4v battery. If you're impatient, I highly recommend getting a quick charger (and time it so it arrives on the same day, if not slightly before the Slash arrives).This is my first 1:10 scale R/C car and I was not prepared for how big it..
