Have you, Kyosho Inferno Fans Seen this!?!? - Smokey - 02-27-2005 I'll Leave a link to the full article and quote a piece: http://forums.radiocontrolzone.com/showthread.php?t=186005 "We got a chance recently to check out a pre-production version of the new Kyosho Mini Inferno when a few Kyosho hot shots brought it into town for a little testing. Jason Sams, one of our West Coast Editors, sat down with the Kyosho gang and got the scoop on this hottest new mini. Among other features, this machine runs on six alkaline cells or up to eight of the 2/3A-size Ni-MH cells. Additionally, it has a big 380-size motor, not the typical 280-size motor found in most other minis. The present schedule calls for a release date in February 2005, so it's not going to be here for Christmas, but it won't be much longer. Stay tuned for more info. -Adjustable rear toe (comes with three different rear toe blocks) - Adjustable front caster (20 and 22 degree front hubs provided) - Several shock mounting positions in the both front and rear towers. - Friction shocks (optional oil-filled with be available) - Powered by 6 Alkaline dry cells or 8-cell NiMh GP 1100 cells - Easily adjustable servo saver in right side bellcrank - Full-time 4WD - Slotted dish wheels with Mini-pin style tires (comes with foam inserts) -380-sized motor - Micro-sized servo (different servo mounts provided for the bigger "Mini" sized servos) -Plenty of chassis space for upgrading to 1/10-scale electronics - Receiver and speedo combo unit - Adjustable slipper clutch - Droop screws in the suspension arms - Mounts for optional front and rear sway bars - Adjustable motor mount - Most parts (suspension arms, chassis, towers etc...) closely resemble 1/8-scale Inferno - Foe engine cooling head can easily be removed with a single body clip QUICK SPECS Wheelbase: 176mm Track F/R: 148mm Weight: 800g Motor: 380-sized Wheel Size: 64mmX25mm Length: 270mm Final drive ratio: 10.8:1" a pic: Pretty cool!

I'd love to see them make a rally car body for it. then it could be a 1/18 version of an 1/8 scale buggy or a larger rally car.
