If they want sales success in this market they will need to sacrifice some of it and pass it on to the dealers that they hope will sell their product. It's a silly prospect for a brick and mortar store to stock any race level kit right now but least of all a $900 kit that will be obsoleted in 9 months from release date.
sorry, but your claim about the mbx6 costing as much as the mp9 to make is wrong... the MP9 has A LOT MORE machined parts and the whole thing is manufactured and assembled in Japan...
Kyosho's margin is small, it's an economic fact of life for a product in the upper range of a market ...
the car is two years old and just won the world championship, what are you taking about obsolete in 9 months?
come on man, tell me something real
I love it how the competitor fan boys come in this thread to try and pounce with the flaming, it's funny
