Latest from www.tamiyausa.com, no pics yet though...

Since its introduction in June 2004, the TNX has dominated the U.S. R/C racing truck scene with a series of impressive wins, including Monster Madness and the Nitro Maxx Challenge. We now proudly announce our next generation Ready-to-Run nitro monster truck: the TNX 5.2R which is designed to continue this victorious trend with even greater top speeds and performance.

Rear exhaust pipe bursts with power, pushing this R/C truck to the front of the pack with explosive acceleration and extreme top speeds. High performance 5.2cc .32 engine features slide carb for optimum response. New TGM-04 chassis features 2-speed transmission for reliable shifting and ball pivot suspension equipped with 4 large capacity oil dampers for excellent handling and stability. Ultra tough chassis frame features reinforced and heavy-duty parts built to take on all kinds of terrain and win. Steel drive shaft provides improved durability and excellent performance, without adding unnecessary weight. Fully-equipped weight of the new TNX is drastically reduced, weighing in at 4,300g. This is a full 100g lighter than the original TNX, and compares favorably with most 1/10 scale monster trucks.
