Pookyt just has no faith in the date on Horizons site, which by the way still has not changed as of the other day. He is just going through stress relief from all those storms they had in his area and keeping the double wide thorougly strapped down!!

I saw him on tv, he was definitely holding it down. There were t-maxxs and savages in the background moving trailers around.

my theory was before the carpet nats so they can run it in stock, but i guess that officially starts tomorrow. maybe it gets released tonight at midnight?

IIRC, the xxx-s was released immediately before the nats that year.

Corally does this, they are all one color. I did what kinwald does. Its lisited on 4wdrc.com, just cut marks in the spring. 1 means this, 2 means that. Otherwise you could just paint the end yourself. Keep making these kinds of requests and cars keep getting delayed. It's just a minor detail that you can fix yourself.

It looks like Dumas is running sway bars? Is that common for foam setups on the Losi?

Hope springs eternal 'round here. :-)

I'm kind of on the fence between the Type-R and 007, but LiPo in the 007 is pretty messy. I'm a little bit concerned about the durability of the Type-R, wasn't the last car considered more fragile than others? How's the EA3 worked out on other cars?

The JRX-S spool is the same for the Type-R, right? I'm gonna eat my words and do some rubber tire for a while.

Spool, diff, and oneways are different on this Type-R. The JRXS spool pad pulley is similar but for the Type R it will have the larger center opening like the oneway pulley.

Anybody who got one of the original spool pullyes with the large center hole will be in good shape for the Type-R. LOL

Err, sorry, the one-way, not the spool.
