Cool little car, perfect for a spec class. Price is fully justified when you consider that beautiful licensed body and adjustability, including those threaded shocks - things you WON'T see on an Arrma offering. As for the body mounts, I expect it's a little difficult to fit a clipless system on an on-road chassis and it would further add to that high cost. I'm good with the body clips.

Might consider one. Want an rc for small paved driveway racing (like 15x50ft total size). We tried to 1/10 buggy there, but even limited to 20mph it just didn't really work nicely. So something smaller like losi mini, or 1/16 traxxas were i my opinion probably the most capabel and proven chassis. But problem with most other mini's is also ground clearance, no street tires and no cool car bodies. This one looks nice, so thats a big plus, rest off specs will be interesting.

I would like to take this long chassis and make a hybrid truggy setup like they do with the 6s arrmas.

Maybe when parts become available you can just buy a body and the wheels and then glue them to a block of wood :-) if you weren't planning on running it anyway it really that might be a viable option.

That's a NO from me.!! $190.!!! For a 1/12 scale plastic fantastic car with weak diffs (they'll probably last longer in this though due to the smaller tyres & being an on road).! When you can get something like a brushless MJX Hyper Go C3 rally or Hoonitruck for around £100 that's 3S capable & will do 45mph.! It'll also be more durable.! I know I'm missing the point because they're going after racing fans with it, but still, $190.!!! It smacks of a dirty marketing exercise.!

Yeah I think this is really only going to appeal to people who are attracted to the NASCAR theme.

Losi = $$$$ Power = 2/10. Not worth it. Overpriced, surely with brushed crap motor and 2s brushed esc.

Yes at the same power system as the groms it's probably going to be fairly slow.

Sad that losi has went and put their good name on an arrma. No doubt it will be a turd.

I actually expected to be pretty good. This platform is extremely durable handles well and other than not being super powerful out of the box is a really great set up.

not worth it. Mjx 14303 ist the cooler and a lot oh cheaper car. Bought one and it is for 120 bucks the brst value what you can get for the money

Yeah I think this will only really be worth it if you just have to have the NASCAR look.

@@maltesrc Yeah it's pretty expensive. The groms in general aren't the cheapest things in the world for what you get and it's interesting to see how much the licensing tax adds on.

Not a grom 😮😂😂

@@richardbrown6762 because it's a grom. It's on the grom platform. The chassis is identical other than being slightly longer, it uses all of the same drivetrain components, uses all of the same electronics etc. The only difference is our typical platform changes to make different vehicles on the same platform such as arm length shock height etc.

@@richardbrown6762 Grom is a platform. It is a basic set of parts and design that multiple different vehicles are based on. The granite grom and the Typhon Grom are not the same exact car but they're both groms because they're both on the same platform. This is kind of like how Arrma has its 6s platform. It has a bunch of vehicles on that platform but they're all on the same 6s platform. Small differences such as having adjustable links length of the chassis shock tower size etc determine the specific vehicle but they don't change the fact that they're on the same platform.

Too bad its not 1/10...

I'm guessing 1/10 would have been a bit much for the Grom platform. I do want to get the chassis and make a truggy though!

Never again Losi or anything from horizon. Company that makes fun of small KZread channels like mine and then block me on social media. What a poor and lame shit company !!

Sorry to hear that happen. I've never heard of something like that happening before.

All that licensing but nothing special. Can we expect anything less from horizon hobby now a days.

I think some people will be excited about it. People do love NASCAR and licensed stuff does have a niche. It's not something I would be interested in on my own but I do like the idea of an on-road grom variant. I really hope they make this into infraction Grom. I'd be shocked if they didn't

NASCAR people will pay anything
