LaTrax Desert Prerunner 1/18th 4WD racing truck

Traxxas have introduced the new LaTrax Desert Prerunner 1/18th scale 4WD racing truck. In full-scale motorsport, drivers first get a feel for the course in a prerunner. Prerunners are street-legal monsters with huge suspension travel, fortified drivetrains, and massive power. A prerunner must be built strong enough to tackle the toughest courses, while still being manageable on the street. The LaTrax Desert Prerunner packs these race-bred features into a convenient, take-anywhere, 1/18th scale size. Like full-size vehicles, the LaTrax Prerunner is built to be fast and nimble while being extremely durable and able to withstand the rigours of all-terrain racing action. Equipped with a powerful motor, independent suspension, and 4-wheel drive, the Prerunner is Ready-To-Race right out of the box. The all-weather electronics defeat the elements—driving through mud, snow, and water. Oil-filled shocks soak up the bumps and jumps, and provide smooth suspension movement over any terrain. The set is rounded out by an iD-equipped 7.2V NiMH battery pack and an AC wall charger.
