Very impressive list of features Heavy… I couldn’t quite work out how the steering system works and the front / behind rear shocks… fueling food for thought. Under tray much to my liking and most definitely the overall technology is 21st century . Haven’t seen an offroad like that before and the tilt top plate…. NICE!!!!
ActionRC pricing – Depending on exchange rates etc when kits are released
K111 – $450
K113 – $350
Excitement and anticipation are mounting – everywhere I go people want to talk about the Cougar (that’s the buggy not Rob Attack aka TheCougar))
Might be a sign for Rob to start driving himself at last instead of sitting around and marshalling for the Flea – a Cougar for the Cougar.
The Stig is getting one.
i got one thing to say about the cougar…i want one
