Default RE: Xray price down again??

Mugen prospec is at least a hundred buck more than the xb8 if im not mistaken. They sell at my hobby shop for over 700 bucks. Mugen people are gonna stick with mugen, i don't think xray expects to break into the mugen market. I have heard that when the xb8 was originally released it was priced less, and they wanted to be considered along the same lines and the prospec and the special buggies. So they raised the price to around the same as mugen and kyosho. I guess now they are dropping it again. Although the xb8 price has not dropped on rcamerica i don't believe. Also i agree a hundred bucks is alot of money generally speaking, but in this hobby a hundred bucks in like a twenty dollar bill. If you go buy a damn glow starter, a few plugs, a gallon of fuel and a fuel bottle, you just spent over a hundred bucks.
