I think after I change that set-up that I can get into the top 3 if I drive to my potential! Also last week at the Psycho Nitro Blast I got 2nd behind Truhe after an hour long main! Buggy is great!
Truck is also really good. I had a rough time qualifying yesterday, but still managed to qualify in the B-main, also had fast lap of entire weekend and many comments on how well it was looking on the track!

So I can't say anything bad about the Kyosho they were great vehicles and I pushed that ST-RR beyond it's limits more than once but I'm happy with my decision and I'm really happy with the vehicles! :-D

Sold off my MBX6 and kept my old but rebuilt MBX5R while I'm waiting.
Anything new om release date?

I do see here in Europe,awesome guys running, but Lutz it's different, it's outta control 110% of the time, it's madness and crazy, it's speed and passion, this guy deserves a true support from every sponsor of him, i think that in a few time, he will fight for the World Championship!
Kyosho loss was Tamiya gain, Tamiya has smart enough to get to their team one of the most enthusiastic drivers in R/C, a driver that can fight every race he's in, so i'm looking forward to see his sucess with Tamiya stuff.
For my happyness and enjoyment,i'm going to see Ryan Lutz driving in Neo09, i'm looking forward to see him and his car, but mainly him driving at the track. Has everything that i admire,i always want to see live performance of the driver,hehe!

BTW, i'm very curious about the car, seems really cool and fast!

If you don't mind me asking, when are you and Dave going to be out at Revelation again? I'd like to stop by and check out the new Tamiya buggy in action.
Thanks!

The most impressive thing I saw about it was it could stay under Ryan's vicious driving. I was pretty sure the show was over in Truggy until that pin came out. In buggy it didn't look like Ryan was pushing as hard. Maybe he was trying to find the limits of the car and the ever changing "line" of the track. In sum, Tamiya has a future in 1/8th with this driver. My prediction is Ryan is going to work and work and not make that big of a showing. Then one day it is going to come together like a light switch. Which means Game Over for everyone else. As you get it together Ryan, we will be watching!!!

Myself and Dave are the primary drivers for the car and Dave is totally new to 1/8th offroad. So it will take a little bit of time for us to figure each other out and what the car needs. However, i agree that when that time comes the world will be on notice! haha
