If your patient, and can wait.. you'll have a nice 1/12th car. If not, then there are plently of 12L/ Rev 4 copy's out there to choose from.
Looks like you finally understood my previous comment. Have fun building your new car, whatever you choose to get.

Whats your name anyways???

Corally agreed to pay him to race.
This is NOT true.

How about a head count of those who've paid for a Rev 5.0 directly from Speedmerchant and have not recieved it.
I'm going on 8 weeks and know of 3 others in the same boat.

Guys,

I hate to break it to you but you probaly won't get your Rev 5 before then end of the season. If you can get a hold of someone over there just ask for your money back...

There are plenty of other cars with good support behind them to choose from.

Good luck,

Travis

they didnt ship yet?! I thought some of the people have the cars already, or is that just the front end that they put on the Rev 4?

They have the teflon bushings, AND AWESOME service, I've picked up 2 rev 5 at different times as well as a parts order. All shipped the same or next day.

Use red spooge on the tubes for lower traction.

Looking at the new front end on the team speedmerchant website, I did not find the new front end kit listed in their on-line shopping menu.....

Did I miss it?
