RE: ThunderTiger Rare Bear
indeed...
but if he wanted a reno racer AND "flat out stupid speed"
there are 3 better choices that ARE faster (with ys110 or jett):
1. world models dago red
2. cermark alley cat
3. kyosho kelly F1
a 4'th item is the KMP reno racer, critical mass, but the actual plane no longer runs in the reno races. the model can be built fast just like the 3 above items.
all three are reno racers and the kyosho may be in the 150mph class.
the rare bear looks great on the outside - great for sales - but not speed
