Thanks for the info. After reading up on it on the HPI webpaegs and also in this thread, I am anxious to see it, so much so that I am very tempted to place a preorder right now. But I am alo torn. I am thinking I should hold off on my urge and wait until Christmas. That way, people who ahve them will be able to find out all the kinks and good aftermarket upgrades. (or at least, the aftermarket companies will haev time to develop more hop-ups for this version of teh Baja).
