| why not check other hobby shops kev.. i wouldn't get the Hong Nor for the same reasons I've mentioned above.. I mean, we intend to use our kits for the longest time possible.. So, spare parts are essential.. that's just me though..  _________________ "CS or Die!" |

| Yeah, and while you're out, go around Hobby zone. If you are going for something other than for HPI, might aswell try out that placre AdBull. |

| i just met DK this afternoon at area 2. . . . he also just bought the Hongnor. . . it's kinda generic. . . but a good kit for beginners maybe. . . but i doubt if the hobby shop that sells those will have a front oneway hop-ups. . . and no one has tried to lock the rear differential yet. . . those are the essentials for your car to drift well. . . .
but its a good kit anyways for begginers. . . . BUT he said he bought it RTR for 1200dhs. . . which is almost like buying a tamiya TT01. . . . . or even and HPI sprint2 . . . . .they have HPI sprints right?
up to you to decide. . . . |
