Yeah but that little girl is worth it tho, no ? Thankfully we had an "extra" room we could use for the baby, so I got to keep my laundry room pit space.

They are Ott Lites - http://www.ott-lite.com/. You can find them at craft stores, office supply sotres, or lighting stores.

not going to get into a brand-war, but as my siggy says im still running a tc3 because im newer to tc, but thats beside the point, and because i can't afford to get an rdx and keep replacement parts. might have to look into the tc5 tho after its been out and some are on here for $275...hah.

i will agree with the you get what you pay for, but the tc3 brakes easyer than any other car i have ever had. with the kydex bunper on the corally i only broke 4 arm in one winter seasson. the xray is alittle tougher. i have had every xray made but the 007 , i bought a corally rdx instead , glade of it. right know would be a good time to buy a used corally rdx becouse every one wants phi now. from what i have lurned so far is just becouse its a new car don't mean it anybetter than the one its replacing , the fast guys are going to be fast with whatever they drive. for me to change i need to gain a lap or laps not thousonds. the two top car in my book would be the 007 and the rdx. there is a pro drive that races at my local track that tested them. he used the same motor, tires , speed control, survo, roll out. he was faster with the xray but his laps were not consitanted like the corally laps were. the corally laps were fast, just thousands off the xray, but in the end he was one lap slower with the corally, so what this tell us ,the corally is a better car for the average racer becouses its easyer to drive and its fast, the xray is faster but it is harder to stay consistant each lap.

It lets the person trying out these cars side x side know that for him, but in the hands of someone else it could be totally different, you cannot base how the car will be for you on what someone else can do with it.
