Status: offline 		ive done some reading about it, and am very interested in maybe gettin one too. i havent found any in depth reviews on it since it is still pretty new. great thing is, its rtr, and it comes with a glow plug igniter (already have one, but never hurts to have spare) and a fuel bottle as well. before i purchase anything though, i like to do a lot of research to get a feel for the product. guess im gonna be keepin an eye on this thread for a while.

Actually, its the other way around, the LD3 is a copy of the NTC3. Take a look at which came first, and take a look at how many parts on the NTC3 are direct-swap parts with the electric TC3 (much older than either the NTC3 or the LD3).

I've had my share of Associated vehicles, from the original buggy (gold tub chassis) to the original RC10T electric truck, to the RC12 on-road, to the TC3 electric touring car, to the RC10GT, and when I went for a nitro touring car i did the unthinkable, I went to HPI for the RS4 3 Type SS. Don't get me wrong, the SS is a pretty good car for bashing, but if I had it to do over again I'd have bought the NTC3. My roommate has one and its simply a better car. Make sure you have good bearings and a good engine, maybe throw some high=speed servos in it, and you'll have a very competitive car and unmatched support and parts availability.
