you can view the website with a translator, but when you look at the ads, they wont read.

if you email them with the specifics, they get back to you really quick. placed the order on friday eve late, got confirmation email with EMS tracking sat night. usually the EMS is here in 3-4 days.

So how is this car weight wise? It looks like a heavyweight compared to other "racers" out there. I know I love my TA04 but its a moose compared to other cars.

By "Full Ball Bearings", does it include bearings for the steering rack as well?

What kind of tires does it come with?

I know the TB-02 is heavy but 04 heavy. I guess I never weighed mine.

You fly the new J model?

yes.. 99% sure it has bearings for the steering (Ghostfit can confirm since he has his built already.. right Ghostfit? )

tires will most likely be Tamiya A tires with 5 spoke rims of some sort

i want mine already!

Sorry ! ...being pretty tired out from work the last couple of days, have not got to the steering bearing/bushing stage yet. Will have a look when I get home from work today and post.

The included tires are not type A, they are Tamiya stock radial Medium narrow tyres (Will post the item number tonight)

Btw ...met a buddy who have aredi built his outta the box without any mods. WHOA ! the car is awesome, even with the stock belts, the drivetrain is silky smooth ! (Looks like I bought the optional aramid belts for nothing !)
