Welcome to the DAC 12 - Large Scale Off Road Championship
RC Racings first trip of 2012 is to the Netherlands and the DAC 12 Large Scale Offroad Event - 130 Drivers from throughout Europe are battling for ...
Is the DAC 12 just 2WD or does it include 4WD? Also obviously the HPI 5B is not included in this race, as it is classed as a 1/5, so this is just 1/6 models or am I missing something?

The Nissan Juke-R DRIVEN in Dubai - Road Testament
Mike Spinelli drives the new Nissan Juke-R concept down in Dubai, this week on Road Testament
I agree with Spinelli, Nissan means something very interesting for the Juke, but it isn't the Juke-R. A WRX/EVO competitor seems most likely; 280hp 1.6L turbo-four, a much less expensive AWD system derived from the GT-R's and a sticker of around $30K.
