Status: offline 		I know this is not the correct forum......but. Just asking for your thoughts....as stated previously in this forum, I have a mp7.5 sports rtr buggy.When it get on the pipe, it screams...but theirs no snap at the low end. My tuning skills are basic. If I pinch the fuel tube at idle the rev's come up...but does not stall. Am I drowning it or starving it? I run an OS #8 plug and the motor has had about 25 tanks of fuel run thur it. Any thoughts? After haft a tank of fuel has run I'm at about 225 deg.

The price for a Inferno GT @ my LHS is $389.00 US What do you think? I'm wanting one Badddddd!

The chassis bumpers are not set up to deflect when landing, so I think it'd torpedo into the groung, rather that skim into a landing a la the buggies.

Here is a video, but the car in the video (Blue Subaru WRC) is almost straight out of the box. It has Ofna soft foams that stick TOO GOOD, becasue they grab so hard twice they roll the car.

The Inferno Gt in the video is out of the box, and the trans is in second gear the whole time because the owner didn't get a chance to adjust it. Car is also sitting higher than it should because the owner didn't get a chance to lower it.

Status: offline 		Well, $389 seems to be the going Web rate. I can't see the shipping differences without actually entering all the info for my billing.

I got mine ordered through HobbyTown USA for $369. I know the Inferno GT is pretty hot right now, so prices did go up. I got mine when there was a light buzz about it, but it is getting very popular.

Well Thanks for trying anyhow...I am going ahead and order through them RCPLANET.COM for $379....
Another question.....Where can I get unpainted bodies?
I read somewhere that the painted bodies sells for $120.00 on KYOSHOAMERCA site...which is nice

Status: offline 		Kyosho bodies are some of the best. The $119 price tag is the price for a painted body at 'list price' direct from Kyosho. The street price for painted bodies (gotten from a dealer) is between 60-65 U.S. bucks, which is about right for a huge body.

According to Brian at Kyosho, clear bodies will ship soon for about 45-50.
