Default MR4-tc Mini 1/12 scale

So anyone know anything about this car? Looks cool to me, I wouldn't mind having one except for the fact that I would be the only person in this hemisphere. Any thoughts?

this car just have the mini rs4 as a contender....(i have one)
a 4 cell class will be cool, really cheaper on tires, motor (don't need to cut te lathe) and sure...for batts, but I has been told that u can keep a 4 cells batt as long as a 6 cells cos it looses punch faster, so u cannot keep them in a good shape as long as a normal pack .

good thing about this, compared to the HPI and Xpress rides, tires from you 1/10 will fit...don't have to go out and buy new equipment...I am already thinking 4-cell modifed for this thing...

Hmmmmm !?!?!?!

it is very hard to find good tires for my mini rs4 the HPI ones are just crap
the only solution is to adapt myself touring tires on mini wheels .

Just curious is it for certain that 1/10 tires work on it? Maybe I missed it in the description of something. It would seem to look a little akward if it use regular 1/10 scale tourer slicks.
