Exceed does offer engine replacement and better price and you can PM if your engine has problems. Who says we NEVER offer engine warranty?

True, but aren't customer paying for those with redcat comes higher price? Yes all exceed 1/8th scale comes with high torque metal gear stearing servos too. We offer AM radio and no chrome pipe but we want to leave that upgrade to customer. Exceed-rc targets new nitro car users.

Thanks

I'm not trying to argue at all. If you go nitrorcx.com, our dealer, you get the latest pricing.

"For as long as you own your vehicle, Redcat will replace your engine no matter what happens to it. Burn it up, wear it out or beat it with a sledge hammer, Redcat will replace it for same or upgraded motor for only 1/2 of the retail price of the replacement motor you want to buy. "

need to pay 1/2 of the retail price to replace the engine.

check out what traxxas wants for thier engine program, i can get the engines cheaper at my lhs than what they want for it. its not a bad deal to get an sh .18 for less than $50 if you burn your engine up, drop it from a building or run it over with your car.

For exceed-rc, I'll replace your engine no cost but customer must pay shipping.

so i just asked you, no reason to get upset and i dont really understand what "Of course it's not lifetime but will redcat go on and last for a lifetime" means but redcat racing will honor their engine replacement program for the lifetime of the engine, so i guess if i understand what your asking, yes redcat go on and last for a lifetime

I didn't even get angry or upset at all. You always make comparison between redcat and exceed-rc so i'm just doing the same here. I'm here to help and if customer got problem with their engine just let me know and I'll take care of them.
