Well for those of you who don't know...

1/10th On-Road Himoto RCs such as this one...

http://cgi.ebay.com/HIMOTO-RC-R-C-1-...QQcmdZViewItem

Are actually copies of Selective RC's unnamed, not yet released 1/10th electric chassis.

RCUniverse has actually done a review(actually, a preview in which the guy tried it out) on this chassis in the link below.

They say it's actually not bad.
Not trying to flame you but do you know the defination of "copies"? Himoto is alreayd in the market for years and now selective come up with a identical car and we are talking about "identical" So It is obvious that selective Rc is buying the chassis fro Himoto, repackage it and sell it.

I am not flaming these cars. In fact, i think they are good value for the prices they are asking for. I would still go with the original i.e. Himoto instead of buying a repackage unit (the unamed whatever). The whole idea of paying more for a copy and get less support is just stupid to me.
