I found it at Kyosho's website while I was shopping for wheels and stuff for my Turbo Scorpion. So, it's a good deal? Okay, the description says it's not ROAR approved but I don't care, I'm gonna order one. :D

Well, we shall see (the order is placed). It's 17.5 so not too powerful. Should be good for a rere. 8)

Yeah, not too bad. I also ordered wheels and a wing and shipping was less than $9 to northern 'Bama. I got the car from them as well and it shipped free -- and really fast! I think there's a good chance my order will arrive before Christmas.

I'm about 50 miles west of Gadsden in Cullman. I relocated to Alabama from Illinois with the company I work with back in '96. I love it down here; a great community, low taxes, very little snow and good weather overall means that I no longer need to park my bikes for the winter. :D Downside is that, unlike Illinois, there is no place within a reasonable distance here to race RC. :(

Oh yeah, my wife knows where Cullman is. We'll be out in your neck of the woods in Attalla later this week. They got dumped on with snow pretty good a week or so ago.

Cool! Yeah, we received some snow but it melted in a couple hours. Didn't bother me at all since I really hate that stuff. As it happened, areas south and east saw greater accumulation than us - sorta odd. Most of the family are still up north so will be spending the holidays with them. We may see snow there but I certainly hope not. Anyway, to you and yours, safe travels, Merry Christmas and happy holidays. :D
