Thanks for all the help and keep the pics coming on this awesome thread!
I have an HPI Super F1, but you can't find them anymore

the current kits that are hot are:

Tech Racing F125BR(or TY) <--decent price, unknown handling/performance, 2009 body styles

Tamiya F104Pro <-- decent price, Tamiya Quality, beautiful 2008 bodywork, unknown handling due to battery position change

TRG F108/09 <-- expensive ($300+), awesome-looking chassis, needs body work

Corally F1 NGX<-- pricey ($300), nice chassis, esablished handling, non-scale front end (12th scale parts)

Then there's the HPI Formula10 but it's more of an introductory car, until they come out with a PRO version
