Sorry Craig I was told that Harry was going to be the importer. I think I'll have to have a chat with my source.

I spoke to Harry yesterday and he told me that he is not the importer or distributor. Joe Patane from JPM is the importer.

Cant recall seeing a Team Magic car in the line up in Messina for the Worlds this weekend. There was one XR8 and it finished last.

I would stick with buying one of the top 3 if you are a serious racer. The XR8 has good write ups, but I wouldnt touch the Team Magic car with the proverbial barge pole. The Team Magic tyres are glued on in a strip of foam with a blatant seam running across the tyre. And from what I have been told parts are a nightmare to come across.

the TM shock 1/8th does look ok but it doesnt look like the kind of car you would race, the powerracing XR8 i believe has good potential to become a race winner, time will tell.

I agree the XR8 has potential here, but the Team Magic car is a toy.

Rinkeberg, can you PLEASE just buy a car and be done with it.

Think of where you run. You WILL break parts, so having access to parts trackside is of utmost importance, not to mention help from experienced drivers who drive the same car.

So I doubt you will have parts and help for the Delta or the Team Magic car at Moorebank. But there will be oodles of help for Mugen and Serpent drivers.

The distributer of the XR8 is also trackside at Moorebank.

Forget the obscure brand of cars because you will only sit trackside watching once you break it.

The lads from CMC have kept me running at Moorebank when I broke my car and helped me with every request for setup tips.

Those in the know follow the pros.

Fork out the dollars and be done with it.
