The world famous Summit from Traxxas is now available in a new Orange Paint Scheme. This RC model offers versatility, durability, and off-road capability greater than any other 4WD monster truck. Few years ago Summit pioneered remote-locking front and rear differentials as well as the High/Low 2-speed transmission. Outfitted with an incredible 70:1 low range gear and massive 7″ Canyon AT tires, nothing stands in the way of the Summit and extreme all-terrain fun.

The 2019 Ultimate Scale Truck Expo, held at Lakes Woods and Gardens (Florida) between February 22 and 24, was another great success. The brain child of Corey Verne and Rob Mathews, this annual event brings in the top scale builders and manufactures from around the world.
Months go into building the various scale trails and it shows. With special trails carved into the sides of hills, details like tire treads through the grass and scale bridges makes hanging out in the woods an amazing time.
