I think they are about 18 ~ 19 bucks.

Who cares anyway - the tracks looking good - my cars going good I just can't wait!

Yeah but ttrc is closing soon Really we are debating a few dollars and if that makes or breaks your raceday then you are in the wrong hobby. Hell if you are that concerned with price buy from the states.

The Hobbyman has taper pins for the 4WD coming next week.

Price on X2000's is normally $19.95 - reduced to $17 for KNOX members.

The Hobbyman staff are members of the KNOX club and are at this stage
providing the discount for KNOX members only.

And remember,

Blockeheads USD $65/pair. buy ten pair, get a free tansponder from Willy. Show your knox membership and have them for USD60!

(step right up, business has been a little slow. Come on kev, my price is right, help out a fellow aussie and give me a grand)

Just a reminder to those newbies you do have to either a member of ORRCA Victoria or AARCMCC to run the Knox Cup.

Knox memberships are a mere $24 a year...

With that gets you the discounted tyres from the Hobbyman Dandenong as well as there friendly service!!

To look at the bigger picture, there are several local hobby shops who are supporting not only Knox, but the ORRCA Vic drivers series and the Vic titles.

So here's a big thank you to all of the following retailers:

Hobbyman Dandenong

Mildura Rc Centre

Albury Hobby Centre

Shepparton Toy World

T.T.R.C

Monaro Models and Hobbies

Without their support, big events would be a logistical nightmare.

Now please, continue the amusing bickering.

Dumbass comment removed. I sincerely apologise if I offended anyone and will definately use my melon a bit more before I type.

Great to see the opinion of someone who has been in the hobby for five minutes.

Try and organise a major race meeting without the help of the LHS and importers.

Dawkins help us! lookienoobspasticnoidearacedirector.......

Well I also thought his comments were unwarranted, but as I HAVE been in the hobby five minutes (in the last ten years anyway) wtf would I know?

Certainly seemed a bit of of an over-reaction in response to your original comments. I thought the Knox and Keilor clubs were meant to be good mates?
