I'm a Losi fan and always will be but let me tell you guys that it is great that AE is going all out with this belt car!!! It will only help the sport. I come from the old days of offroad and it was always Losi or AE in the fight. I want that tradition to continue. Just think what NASCAR would be if Ford or Chevy dropped out. Not to mention the fact I hate seeing these "metric" cruisers going so well at the track! LMAO I hope you guys get your belt cars soon and that they meet your expectations. Later

I mean, you KNOW that parts support is always good from AE; just time to step up build quality. I'm bout' it.

The pricing has not really had any influence on the top cars mentioned. They still seem to sell. If Associated makes a car that is just as good, why drop the price under the cars that can sell at that price?
Don't get me wrong, I love to save pennies everywhere I can, just not if it compromises the quality of the car.
Good advice given a long time ago about this hobby. "Buy cheap, you buy twice".

Another point,
Cars that are in prototype stages are not allowed to be run at the worlds?
Heard that somwhere but not sure if it is correct?

I do agree that if it comes between price and quality, I'm gonna save my pennies a little bit longer and get the current spec of craftmanship and durability.
