All true, the best thing about the venom though is that it's up and running in minimum time, literally charge it and go, and if a box stock racing class can be started then we might see a lot of new faces in the class, not everyone wants all the hops ups, or can afford them.
The Venom is a fresh new design with lots of top notch features, whereas the OTO looks a lot like a little NF bike and has similar modications required to get it going properly, which is part of the fun to me!

Dez the Venom is not on sale at model shops yet, the date has been put back once again to the 17 of December. The OTO comes with a brushless motor and esc for around £300 all metal construction, 3 disc brakes. The Venom may be ready to run, but all you guys are going to stick a brushless set up in it, and a lipo battery, that Mongoose set up is over £130 so thats over £310 already, plus battery and upgrades will work out expensive for a very plastic bike.

The OTO bike is fine, though a little wide across the chassis, and not available as an RTR kit henmce a lot of attantion has turned to the Venom, which at around £180 all in is quite a package! We have tested and reviewed the Venom GPV-1 in January Issue of RRCi magazine, on sale now at all good model shops.

Cheers Mark, the OTO is fine, just a bit heavy and very wide at the front, so all the usual NF/TT mods apply, cut away some chassis and narrow the fairing to get lean angle.
