Keep in mind that they have a store front and they have a warehouse. It maybe possible that the store front is not connected to the website when it comes to inventory. Just a possibility.

I didnt horde these. I had them back ordered at a few different places and they all came off back order within a day. Most will be shared with others at my local track.

Here's the new Pro-Line Phantom body on my B5m. I don't know how I feel about it yet. I will be getting the Sweep body when it's in the US.

Not as bad as I thought.

Tamiya Light Blue with no backing color. I should have backed with white to get the color I was looking for I think...

What do the alum. arm mounts do for you. I assume they are stronger, but are they adjustable as well?

It is easier to adjust toe in and anti squat by using removable pill inserts....rather than having to dissasemble the car to change the entire mount.

Sure wish we could get some parts like A-Arms off back order. Obviously conversion kits are more important......

Ok well bravo to sharing them with your locals vs up-charging your peers.
