I was granted access into the customer log and came across a person with the same location as you.Your order status has already been completed for a period of 2 days so it should be en route to your location.The order description was the same as you mentioned, for the dyuaro tire it doesn't require heating since its a super hard compound abs foam core pipe. You place it on the wheel and you are ready... the DXPE can be boiled and then placed onto the wheel... from that process you can then place it in your freezer ( while the tyre is mounted on the wheel ). It helps with securing the fit, the physics is that you place it hot on the wheel and then proceed it to the freezer and it contracts onto the wheel. This will secure a tighter fit, and will make it more snug. The reason certain tyres come out is because of the friction heating them up on the floor.. when that happens it becomes more malleable and then slips off the wheel. You can contact me on my communications email on the website, since I give advice and technical answers via that address.. I will try to be as speedy as I can to answer your questions. I have a limited amount of free time today so I will start compiling the list and looking out for some places for you to buy the upgradeable parts, I know one person I trust in tokyo who has proven efficient for sending out items to the States.

Your mechanical knowledge is valued because it sure helps while proceeding onto building and rc car and understanding the fundamentals. From my observations on rc cars... I noticed they share the same exact characteristics of that of a real life car. This is the part that has fascinated me... because instead of spending an enormous amount of money on a 1:1 scale car.. you can spend 1:10 of that money on an rc car! For those that it is impractical for them to have there own performance car they can work on, the rc car fills that void perfectly! Its a very soothing hobby and the product of your labor proves valuable to you when you actually see the car you have built... move on its own!

HyperDrift is a very respectful group and have advanced the drift community from what I heard tremendously in Hawaii. They have become very popular and produce some beautiful videos.

The time and energy you need to put into your cars definitely will help ease some of the anxiety you may receive from PTSD. I have heard some cases of people having it and then when they find something that occupies their time the symptoms seems to lessen a little more.

Once the list is compiled I will send over the information pertaining to websites that carry products, costs, and part numbers if available. Some sites may have better deals then other's so it requires some searching to find a bargain. As I mentioned previously.. if you need any help please feel free to contact me via my email.. if its an emergency and it doesn't go through my email server you can send me the message here or post it.
