I'm worry about alex don't make replacement parts for this car. If they do, I think you only can get it from them directly and in Japan only. I'm wondering, is this car worth to me if I can't get the parts?

You're not going to break a motor mount, atleast I hope not and the only other different part is the chassis which I'm sure you'll be able to get in it's reversed format should you ever need it. Other than that all parts are the same as the original so you'll be able to get them no problem. The orange alloy parts won't need changing I wouldn't think, most alloy parts look strong enough to avoid bending in all but the worst of crashes, just don't do what Dave did and get tapped off by a slow car You could always run it with normal cvd's instead of orange ones.

With the parts you get included stock on the web edition, the car almost comes out the same price as buying all of them for the R2, but you get the unique reversed chassis, and ORANGE

LOL get you 2 of them and donate it to david B.(redbull)

I'm planning on getting the web special, and then ordering a black carbon MR-4TCSD to see which I like better between the 2.

Steve at Speed Tech should be able to get you most of what you need...but it you break a chassis I can get you one...

also there is a piece of paper that is in the kit that basically registers your serial # with Alex Racing so if you would ever need parts they would know who broke what ect ect

Cant say how happy I am that 1 of the 100 made is going to be in my pit. Now all I need is for Speedway PAL to make a drive system for it, get orange hubs, and acer ceramic bearings, and I'm set! Thank you so much for the connection Dave!

Jason Lutz (BigDogRacing) is painting me a body right now special for the Web Edition! I can't save the pics from his site onto my computer and post them, but check out the 2 blue bodies with yellow flames and a silver front 9 lines up from the bottom at http://bigdog.rcracing.com/Photo_Gallery.cfm Those are my normal race bodies that he painted for me a couple years ago. But check out that badass orange colored car 1 line below my bodies, and that orange is replacing the blue for my Web Special Gonna look nice!
