Robitronics Scalpel 1/18th Pan Car?
As discovered by Duneland at the Chicago show..
Still under wraps.
I wonder if this is the trackdrooler?
Duneland, can you comment if they look the same?

I can't be shure. It looks a lot like that. I think the shock is a lot smaller than those pics indicate. The one I looked at, had all the gear in it (including a Mamba system). I made fun of them for putting a 'little girl' 4 cell NiMh pack in it .
I have a friend or two, going to the show over the weekend. I'll try to get one of them to shoot some pics. I could have done it with my phone, but I keep forgetting it can do that !

I hope so. I've been waiting for a car like that. I've even considered fabricating one for myself.

A friend snapped this shot at the Chicago show. It was taken with a phone cam through a glass display.

When I saw it at their booth on Thurs, it had a Mamba system in it. Any of the micro bl systems will drop right in.

Its cool, and what the BRP wishes it was. But I still would like to wait for the track drooler. I loved my CRC carpet knife, and the trackdrooler has suspension just like it.
I hate tbar suspension.

BTW, that little infared module on the servo is part of a Robotronic lap counting system. It has to face up through a clear part of a body, like the front window. Loop has to be on a bridge and I was told that the system would be like $500 bucks w/3-5 transponders. And I think $50 each additional.

That's right, Dynomite! I wish I had known about that system before I bought the one I use now. The retail price on this one is $550 & the transponders are $55. Those are the list prices, but they do have a dealer pricing structure, so selling prices can be less. Unlike other IR systems, their transponders have unique codes (like amb personals). The system I use only has 14 codes but the transponders are re-programable.
I may try to sell my system & replace it with this one. I would have to have an exchange deal with the racers who allready purchased ones for my system though.

couple months on the car. I believe the lap counter is in stock now.
