This car getting put on the market with an amazing price. Not to mention the spares ( with and equally nice price ) will probably be stocked at most hobby shops. I think they did it the right way. They need to rebuild there customer base and offering a carpet foam tire ready car kit is a great start.
Prices are rising on there cars and to hit this price point is amazing.
I totally agree. I will be running my TC5 on rubber asphalt with the stock chassis to start and upgrade to the ITF chassis when I can afford it. I have no problems with this because the TC5 has such a great price when compared to any other car on the market. Also, parts support is going to be a given. The Hobbytown near me still stocks parts for the TC3 and many other older Team Associated kits. Since AE is based in America, offering a kit that comes out of the box to run on carpet is a great idea. I personally cannot wait untill the TC5 comes out. I will be impationtly awaiting the arrival of mine
