Default RE: i

The mercedes is made by smarttech, the ford gt by hobbypro. I have the ford and someone at the track I run at has the mercedes. They are identical. Both are cheap and all FG parts fit them.

lol, the funny part is that they have a good engine in it, and then advertise a worse engine.
