The race is on to see who will be the first to take their Revo electric conversion and put it on this, or put these arms & links and Slash wheels & body on their electric Revo conversion

At first I thought this was sort of a put on, but the more I looked, the more my jaw just hung open. I just.............quite literally could NOT believe what I was gazing at. It's a very good thing I was not standing when I laid eyes on the Slayer (hmm, I now all of a sudden want to listen to that band) my mind just melted. I sat in front of my computer and went to pieces. Traxxas, those sneaky little did it AGAIN! Great, now do I want the Slash or the Slayer?

Side note: Anyone else notice that Traxxas named the electric truck after Guns 'n' Roses' great guitarist and now has a nitro version named after a very prominent heavy metal band?
Traxxas: Stampede, 3905 E-Maxx
Losi: Muggy, Mini Desert Truck
