This is the Racers Edge 1/8th Scale Hauler Bag, and it is like nothing else on the market. This top of the line R/C hauler bag will work great with 1/8th scale buggies and smaller scale R/C cars. It features 2 small drawers in the lowest position, 1 medium size drawer in the middle position, and 1 large drawer in the upper position that is large enough for a 1/8 scale buggy with the wing and wheels attached! The drawers are all black corrugated plastic, so they will stand up to lots of abuse, will not absorb oils or fuel like cheaper cardboard drawers, and are easily washable. It also features smooth rolling wheels, an advanced telescoping aluminum handle and a upper compartment with an elastic loop tool holder with spaces for 12 tools and room for smaller individual boxes (not included), to hold more tools or spare parts. On the outer portion of the bag are multiple pockets for storage; the left side has 2 large pockets, the right side has a single large pocket and the rear has a large pocket big enough for a setup board!

As of now the nylon that covers the front inner edges has frayed a bit due to the zippers running on it. It doesn't impact the bag itself so long as it doesn't rip further. The sides have warped some, but still work. The drawers themselves look new which is great. When this bag came out plastic drawers were still kind of new. The bottom is a little worse for wear in terms of scratches but has held up great for being dragged up and down concrete stairs and gravel. The telescoping handle still works great(I had put some grease in it just in case). One of the little pouches did rip off, but that was my foot getting caught against the bag while rolling forward quickly....it was a pretty hard hit heh.
That said, it looks like the same company that makes the bag for racers edge is making it for other companies with some variation. The price on this bag seems to have gone up which looks to be caused from cosmetic and structure changes from what I can see.
All in all, so far it's STILL being a good bag. I'll probably replace it soon or give it to the electronics lab before it straight dies completely.
What we need is a strong, hard plastic built hauler bag with a strong rigid structure. Kind of like the Fat Max tool box, but specifically for rc.
On top I strapped the radio bag on it. In the top area I have an Upgrade small pit mat, tools, tool bag from Protek, car stand from Overdose(2)
In the big side bag i have manuals and setup sheets. In one of the small side bags is a nova link.
Im using the top drawer for chargers power supply tool box and a soldering iron.
Middle drawer Lipos and screw kits.
in one of the bottom drawer Proline tires and in the other, liquids and spare parts.
Great product.
and no you cant fit a SC truck. I tried my Slash 4x4 and blitz ESE (body on)
I would suggest this bag and highly reccomend it.
