I seem to remember reading before the worlds. I here the kyosho guys saying a 350.00 car is junk and will not be able complet at this that level. I sure see alot of cake with frosting being eaten.
Ha ha.. you're right. Winning on Sunday means Sales on Monday. D8's were flying off the shelf after the IFMAR win. HPI has great marketing. The Kyosho, Mugen, AE, and Losi have proven themselves time and time again. The D8's longevity remains to be seen. But realistically these cars are rarely the limiting factor when it comes to all but the pro races. They want to win the pro classes so they can market their cars as the best to everyone else. It's all a game. Score one for HPI.
