The only down side from ordering from asia is the long wait...

Thats the only reason i shy away from sellers located in asia. Price is cheap though, i guess it just take patience eh?

Yeah, that's why you need to have a bunch of cars.. so with one or two of them down due to parts, you can play with others....

Thanks! Looks like that's one more things to get.... but for non-metric 48P pinion, I am sure LHS would have it.. so I am not worried..

Lunchboxer, congrats on the nice FT TC4 bye. I have a TC4, though it is the RTR version (way cheaper then the FT at the time).

I would like to get the Factory Team but I think I will wait for the TC5.

Thanks! Yeah, the TC5 is gonna be belt driven, though, right?! So for me, TC4 FT is probably better for a non-pro like me.. if I bash or run on track that's not that clean..

Not saying I won't get a belt car in the future.. XRay T2?!??!

Yep the TC5 is going to be belt driven. I only bash, but I have heard that belts hold up to some abuse, so we will see how it goes.

XRay T2!! Thats makes two non Tamiya cars

... Who are you and what have you done to the real Lunchboxer.

The issue is not that the belt can't take the power.. it is more that with the open drivetrain, if things get in there (I don't run on preped surface), it might do some damage.. compare to the shaft drive, where everything is sealed...

LOL! Yeah.. well, just a thought for now.. I think I have exhausted all my RC budget..

Okay, not really, but I should really concentrate on getting that TXT!

LOL, you want someone who only drove on the track ONCE as your competition?!?! I won't be much of a competition....

I should have the TC4 by mid next week, I think.. and I can use the wheel/tire from my TB-02.. radio gear is no problem..

BUT, I don't think I will have the Mamba Max by then... (like I said, backordered for 3+ months now) I will only have the Neo Sphere 1-Star.. probably won't post a challenge for your nitro...

We will see... would love to get ready to run with you guys for sure!!
