Revo basher blues!
Some times I wonder why I took this hobby up again. I quit before because of where I live. About four Years ago I lived in Tokyo. RC Shops were ten times better than the ones in the states. I had the ability to customize my cars because of the large variety of parts they carried. Example my old Kyosho MKII World Cup car had a Super10 two speed clutch and a hand made .21 that was the same size as a .15. The different compounds of tires. Example 40s, 35s, 30s, 25s, and the super soft 20s. Brands like Pit Shimazu and Sorex! Why don't we have those compounds in the US. My favorite Cross R34 Skyline GTR body. A hole wall with nothing but Mugen parts, or Serpent. Now I live in BFE Oklahoma with this REVO that I thought I would have fun bashing with. I raced at tracks like TechnoGP and BOSS RC. I wish I could go back! I'm not trying to nock the bashers but for me I find it hard the jump ramps and tear around the local park. I get board. I want to run my truck and if I bust something I want to walk to the tracks shop and buy what I need on the spot! Now I bust it I have to wait around for a week! This sucks! I guess you get spoiled living in Japan. I also made the mistake of taking all of my AE-86 parts from my drift car in Japan and built a 86 Corolla here. Now I have this drift car that sits in the garage. Why me!
