Wow, I dont understand why kyosho america wouldn't want to import it. It is a new offering from the company and the tf-5 is definately aging. A poor choice I think if they don't, even if it is a me too design, On a side note, I would like to see them lower their selling prices out of the stratisphere some.

That car is different from the pictures originally posted. Is that the final production version? It looks like they addressed the spur gear change issue by changing the top deck. Why are the wheels being held onto the car with set-up station screws?

@ YR4Dude
The car is just a production car, no protoype bits. The wheels are hold on the car with such nuts since I quickly putted the tires on in order to check my ride height. You can change the spurgear on the car by undoing the topdeck screws, move the topdeck to the side and up a little and take the layshaft out.

I only used 6 screws instead of the original 12. This gives much better flex since I think the car is too stiff with standard chassis and topdeck. I used rubber shimms underneath the row of screws aligned with the topdeck to make it flex better.
When you take a closer look you'll also see that I've cutted the topdeck at the font-side of the car, the carbon strip between the bulkheads is gone.. again.. provides more flex!
Shin Adachi and Christopher Krapp will be testing thinner chassis and topdeck at the worlds warm-up this weekend.

Right now I only have to remove 6 screws to get to the layshaft, since I'm only using 6 out of 12 screws in the topdeck. Just take the topdeck off and you're good to take the layshaft out.
