Okay I bought my son a Himoto Syclone, it was a good price and a nice starter car. I figured he could get the feel and knowledge of a gas powered car before I go sinking $500 on a better one. Over all it is a decent little car, but I am finding it impossible to locate replacement/upgrade parts at local hobby shops. Does anyone know if there are any compatible parts? Any other RC cars that are similar to the himoto's? Any thoughts or idea's are greatly appreciated!
