Product DescriptionTraxxas was started in 1986 with an idea for what was at that time an entirely new concept for a fully assembled hobby-class R/C car. This new car would have all the same benefits of a hobby-class kit such as replaceable parts hop-ups and a high-quality component radio system however it would be fully assembled with a colorful body right out of the box. Traxxas coined the term ""Ready-To-Run"" (RTR) to describe this new class. Since a fully assembled ready-to-run car would appeal to the entry-level beginner a toll-free customer support line was set up from day one to service an entirely new category of hobby consumer. At first acceptance of the RTR concept was slow because traditional R/C kits had always been unassembled. Once people realized that a Traxxas RTR had the same performance and quality as the traditional R/C kits only that they didn't have to build it the ready-to-run car was a runaway hit! A kit version would still be offered for those who still wanted to have the building experience.From the ManufacturerThis is the 5224 Connecting Rod TRX 2.5 from Traxxas.
