Barry runs a Centro and so does all of the AE team right now at OCRC, home of Reedy.

There is only one MM buggy to run right now. There is another for pictures. The buggy is at OCRC raceway on a daily basis. Steven Hartson, Kody Numendahl and Brent Thielke have driven it and I was alongside them.

You don't seem to know much considering you're an AE "teammate".

I'll let you know when they're installed on my cubed.

And I'm working in western WA so maybe I can give you a look first hand.

It makes perfect sense this is a "Team" not a "Factory Team" or "Worlds" kit.

It's all about the Benjamin's, they'll sell a ton of these and then 6 months later as things die down they'll drop the FT version and ride the money train again.

As a buyer I don't exactly like it BUT I can fully understand the business model behind it.

Like Kevin said there is just the one test mule right now but from what I see of it, it is as fast or faster than the centro. I had a nice talk with Tim Tunnerman tonight and he confirmed that all these nice parts you see above will be forth coming, sooner rather than later. He also pointed out something we all take for granted, this is a ground up new car, designed around current state of the art tech, lipos, brushless, hi grip surfaces, and new tire tech.

As he said it the B4, as good as it is, was just trying to keep up.

And of course he was running an original RC10 in stock buggy tonight and keeping up.

By the By Kevin, we missed you tonight!

I am having the worlds most annoying tug-of-war in my head.. Do I buy someone's used 2wd buggy in the 'fire-sale' when these come out and wait for the FT version? Or do I just suck it up and get the new MM?… -.- I have ALWAYS waited for the FT version (mostly because I had to due to lack of hustle.. Sorry, quoting a movie.. Lack of funding ) but this new buggy is the MOST excited I've been about ANY rc car ever..

And then people post pics of FT parts coming out that won't be in the kit -.- … Stop screwing with my mind...
