nice video but correct me if im wrong the host said that these buggies were made in America example Losi,RC8 etc and the hot bodies in Japan .i dont think any buggy is made in America or Japan i know that they are contracted out to china and taiwan to be manufactured and assembled just the drawings are made in the usa and japan and maybe not even that. .please correct me if im wrong its just what i know.
didnt horizon get into some trouble a while ago with there spectrum saying it was made in usa but in reality it was only designed in the usa and made in indonesia or malaysia?

That is a verb, indeed. I fully understand what you're saying. Do you consider the Fusion a Mexican car? Or those Toyota's that are made in Cambridge, Ontario, Canadian cars?
So, do you consider the Losi a Taiwanese car? I had one for a year and felt that it was pretty obviously not made in the US or of particularly high quality material.
I'm happy with my Xray being made in Slovakia. But I'm curious, are Mugen Seiki and Kyosho, etc. actually stamped "Made In Japan" or are they produced in China/Taiwan?

just as a side note.....I was watching a CORR "stadium/baja truck" (or whatever you want to call it) race on NBC last weekend and Traxxas is getting more and more involved in it. They had a couple of nice commercials during the race that showed a few of their rc trucks. I thought that was pretty cool and some pretty good mainstream exposure for the hobby. I thought it was good to see a commercial for something other than Tyco or Nikko junk that you buy at Wal-Mart.

It sounds like alot of manufacturing will move back to the North American because of the cost of transport. Well atleast to mexico
