Thanks for the info!
A Main doesn't carry it. I approached Stormer but did not hear anything back from them. What other online shops do consider to be in the "bigger name" category?

It took me about 2 years to prove Caster to Amaim before they starting ordering form me. I already have someone inside to start looking into the car but it takes time trust me.

amain and tower are pretty much my gotos right now, fiercercsolutions is one of the smaller shops that specializes in Tekno gear that i have ordered from as well.

Vehicle does look good. very good!

this car is absolutely amazing to drive. WWW.EVOHOBBIES.COM also carries the kits as well as other products you may be interested in. Jeff has excellent customer service and fast shipping. He gets them from Bellgate, which is also fast at shipping as well as meticulosly packed, and usually can get you parts within a few days. Rich has a lot of the parts and such in stock from my understanding, and Jeff is running a special on the v2 kit as we speak. I still run the v2 kit, but will be upgrading as I am a team driver just to show product etc etc. I have no issues with the v2 and it can hang on any day with any car.

Nice Paint Rick!

I am considering this car for my next 2wd Buggy. I have seen a few photos over the pages of this thread that show some aluminum. So what exactly comes with the car? I see Carbon towers, Gold shaft Big bore shocks but some cars have plastic hexes. What material are the C Hubs and Hexes in the base kit?

Fantastic paint job! My kit is sitting on my work bench at home! I might open it this evening and take a look at whats included. Don't plan to start the build until Sunday and will have a week to complete it before my next race. I am more than excited to get this thing on the track! I will post some pictures up once I have completed the build. Has anyone considered doing a complete build video? I don't have the time currently (perhaps this summer) but I know that might sway some potential buyers. When I flew helicopters more frequently I recall that being a big plus for individuals who are a little worried about building their own kit.

Hey guys, here are some up close photos of the Hobby Pro PRS1 2014 Edition Buggy. These particular pictures are the *Pro-Built* versions built by our in-house Pro Builders. We are happy to see the positive response from drivers and Hobby Shops from coast to coast in regards to the Hobby Pro Vehicles.

We look forward to the arrival of the Hobby Pro ST1 Truck coming soon. ; )

I meet up with the owner of rcshox yesterday and he said he will start producing his garodisc slipper pads and two stage pistons for the buggy very soon and the stadium truck also.
