HARM USA?

Who is the current US distributor for HARM? I remember a long while ago, Horizon Hobby used to carry their products then stopped all of the sudden. I like how the HARM cars look and would like to own one. But their site does not mention any distributors in the US.

If anyone knows, please post away! Thanks!

Hi HarryN I have a HARM but its retired now,been driving HARM cars since 2000, right now I am running a FG car and looking to see if I can get a contrast car (a new one and its nice) if you want I can hook you up with the importer of contrast, he is my friend, check it out,http://www.contrast-racing.com/

Hi Harry,

There is no US distributor. I was discussing it with them but interest in the US is too small. I get all my stuff from Rapid Racing in the UK. rapid dot racing dot co dot uk. You don't get hit with the VAT so the prices are very competitive. I have two SX-3s but it seems like everyone is going either with FG or contrast as the previous response indicated. Even Ian Oddie left HARM for Contrast.

There certainly are some nice features on the HARM some weaknesses as well though. I have spent a significant amount of time getting front end play out. The HARM seems to have a lot of adjustment but some of this causes the front end to be a bit sloppy. Having had and EVO-7 I can say both cars have their strengths but I seem to be in the minority going to HARM. No racing up here in New England so I can't say too much about competition.

Give rapid a shout for HARM info.

Woody

Heya Woody, thanks for the heads up. But the Carson car does look pretty interesting. I like FG cars, but they are WAY too pricey for me. Granted they win a lot of races with their cars and parts, but it is too pricey. The Sportsline models are nice, but I like to get the whole shabang if I can.

As far as HARM, when they disappeared from Horizon's catalog, it left an empty space in my heart. I will look into the site you recommended.
