Traxxas and Monster jam part ways...Couple of Axial monster blog posts

..finally, while surfing Tower I find Axial "BKT Monster jam" tires, along with 2.2 monster truck wheels coming in late july.

I'm thinking the AX10 - or a form thereof - lives on...

"thumbsup""thumbsup""thumbsup"

(Edit - should be in general crawlers or chit-chat....not in the noob section - my bad!!)

Do a general search of Axial on Tower & see that they have a Gravedigger printed body listed for late July as well as a bunch of green cage pieces.

Wrong section, noob! :lmao:

Interesting theory and your facts seem to support that theory. It would be very cool to have a new, solid Axle MT. They already have the drivetrain for it.

All the previous AX-10 iterations have been discontinued. Bringing them back as a SA monster truck would make sense, tap into a whole new market with mostly existing parts. It would also push the AX-10 away from competing for buyers with the Wraith if that is where this is going.

Wonder if a new truck will be making an appearance at Axialfest.

neeeeewwwb!

:lmao:

jk. this would be a great truck for newbies in the hobby and probably the best for kids!

I remember way back when the artr orange ax10 came out and everybody and their grandmother was buying them for their kids. my dad got me one for Christmas when I was 14???

back on topic... I hope its ar60's and the new scx10 2 shafts with a 2 speed trans. wraith skid and a simple new tvp alum plates. no need for a cage and all that. keep it light. fun. and wheelie poppin ankle bustin rock smashing fun. "thumbsup"

Lots of monster truck stuff listed on tower.

After reading the first post and links, I think it willl be revealed at Axialfest this year like they did with Yeti in 2014 and we'll have a new solid axle MT.

since the last one I recall was the Tamiya txt-2... but axial should have done this way long ago.

 

[steven318is]

they should use the drive train from the yeti xl :mrgreen:

 

[norco kid]

Oooooh man this is exciting!!!

 

[redemon]

All the parts and numbers have been pulled from Towers site.

A solid axle MT from Axial would be awesome and is long over do!

Tower really is bad on keeping a lid on this axial stuff... Unless of course the're leaking it on purpose to get people talking.

 

[norco kid]

What's interesting is this stuff says "Late July" that can't be right..

I hope they do a Monster Truck that looks like a dog.

Here's a screen shot of two of the parts listings. There were wheels, tires, and a chrome monster truck part tree.

Sweet! Grave Digger makes me want one if it's a nice chassis.

Monster trucks ALWAYS make a comeback because they're one of the most fun RC's on the planet.

I just like the tongue and ears.
