You're talking a LOT less if you order from Japan and a fully hopped-up TA05 is still under $300 and completely TCS legal and the new TA05R looks like it's only going to be about $250 or so and it's rockin and ready. The TRF415 is only legal in TCS GT1 so there is still GT2 and GT3. I'm not knocking any other companies for doing what they do...it's just Tamiya makes affordable, competitive chassis that are constantly overlooked.
$300 for a fully hopped up TA05

All of us managment guys work together on projects. We have beers together after long days at trade shows, etc. The drivers are the same. Heck, at some point almost everyone was a team mate with everyone else

You don't see a TA05 MR edition do you?
I do agree though...Tamiya has the broadest line of cars available..from a Hornet (my 1st car) to the TRF 415.21 MSX MR WC .2345!!

Speedy dude don't run off man. Its just a bunch of guys hanging out. Bottom line, its pit talk. Dogg'n each other is just part of being able to lose or win.
Its a way of saying I'm going to try and put a pass on you next week.
You have to picture the reading like a bunch of guys throwing wauded paper at each other. And an occasional whip of a pit towel. So come on back, hang for awhile and just view the reading in a different tone.
Sure the thread started out simple, and it was encouraged to be some thing simple. But a thread like this is open to a few left turns. Its really no big deal.
And it will enlighten anyone who reads it.
So I'll just say Adrian was the hardest worker of the week last week.
He deserves a vacation. I learned a lot this week due to him. Schumacher had better hang on to him with all they got. Personally I would have given up.
Hes good. And I mean that as a hand shake. Read ya next time.
PS. I think we should go over to syndrOmes' bench racing thread and make'm feel good.

It seems rather elitist to act like RC racing is the only place where we see people acting out, trying to get attention, attacking each other, lighting up tempers, drinking too much, doing this, doing that, and on and on.
Don't you people ever get out?
Pick any hobby anywhere doing anything. What will you see? Most likely 95% of the people being great and enjoying what they do, and 5% doing some or all of the above.
You guys can sit here and piss on about it all day long, but the people who are looking for that attention are not going to stop. They are what they are. Learn to deal with them, or move on. In many of the cases (look at what Barry posted, for example) they know they are wrong and may have just made a mistake.
Anyway, just seems like a silly discussion, even for the internet.
So in conclusion...
