Lately there has been a mass flow into the market of crawling RCs; from the DuraTrax Cliff Climber to the Team Losi Mini-Rock Crawler and even the Axial AX10 RTR. But now Traxxas has taken it one step further by giving you the option of having a crawling RC while still keeping that blistering offroad speed and handling everyone loves! By just a simple flick of a switch you can jam that differential into lock mode and be climbing your way up the rocks with the new Traxxas Summit (http://www.traxxas.com/products/electric/summit5610/trx_summit5610.htm)! However, for you regular offroaders that just want to blaze your own trail, you can keep your differential unlocked and plow your way through the forest.

You now have the option to leave all differentials unlocked; just locking the front differential or having both differentials locked at the same time. You now also have the option to blaze through trails at the second gear transmission setting of 1:25 or to climb your way up the rock face at 70:1 in first gear with the standard 7" Canyon AT tires! There's also the stock 10-LED lighting system to light your way through the night; no more going inside after dark falls.

A little rain setting you back? No worries! The new Traxxas Summit comes standard with the EVX-2 waterproof ESC! This ESC is capable of handling 16.8V which is what you'll need to power that massive 775 size motor! Whether it's rain, snow or mud, this powerhouse of a combination will power it's way through the trail!
The choice is easy when it comes to your new top RC pick. Would you rather be the one inside at nightfall? Would you rather be the one sitting at the bottom of the hill while everyone else is at the top? No, the right pick is the Traxxas Summit where you set your curfew and you show your friends who's King of the Hill!
