i have a question and would like your opinion. how do you think this car will handle on a bumpy indoor carpet track? will the front end help or be more of a pain?

thanks in advance for your input

about 70% done on mine! from this build I have a strong feeling that the front end will play the major roll when it comes to carpet and aSSpalt . Will upload some pics soon

what is the cost for the shipping to usa?

iTrader: (32)

Haha. you ready?!?!? well with some small parts and some greases the shipping was around $59.00!!! I've learn to accept these kind of prices with this hobby plus its a Yokomo!!! To have it in the US is rare because of the part issue if you crash or something wears out. hey if you like I am selling my old rc12r5 converted to 5.1 http://www.rctech.net/forum/r-c-item...12r5-12r5.html

anyway,
I built it with 10days or so. I think this R12 is roughly excellent car.
For example, all of carbon materials and alloy parts are highly precised.
However, I found this car have some of problems. They are mostly
caused by composite material.

The yokomo rears mount about half way down, not at the end like all the other wheels, fronts are the same as other by the looks of things I haven't measured the offset on my fronts yet to make 100% sure.

Here's a picture from redrc standard wheel on the left and yokomo on the right. Only issue vie got now is where to get the foam donuts on there own from ? I ordered a few yokomo ones to hold me over as that's all I could find so far.
