If anyone wants one / more I guess us UK members could always buy them and ship them on to the USA. Postage may be a killer, but just a thought. I guess you would need it insured and fully tracked which adds up quickly. No idea on costs but you could always research it on ParcelForce website?
Thanks for sharing. I watched the youtube video which was a good summary I thought. In the video, what is the point of the random guitar/jam session music going on in the background? Annoying when I want to see the car and hear what the guy has to say.

And which cars do you wish would be re-re'd in future?
My wish additional list would be:
Optima Turbo
Yokomo YZ-10
Burns Turbo
Re-re Fox, which was the one I wanted the most. Still looking a couple others but the Avante price is just so silly high. The Egress on the other, that's another I want.
I miss brushed motors in that hazy, everything seemed better when I was a kid, kind of way.

Sorry to drag up an off-topic....but I just saw this today. Yup, still proud to be a Ford guy
(DETROIT) — A watchdog says the U.S. government expects to lose $9.7 billion on its bailout of General Motors.
The government spent $49.5 billion to save GM five years ago. The Special Inspector General for the Troubled Asset Relief Program says the government has recovered $34.5 billion. That leaves $15 billion.
The government got 61 percent of GM's stock in the bailout. It has sold all but 7 percent, or 101 million shares. Those would have to sell for $148 each to break even. GM stock was trading at $35.72 Tuesday.
The inspector general says in a report to Congress that the government is showing a $9.7 billion loss on its books.
