It sounds like the car did well. I watched the Youtube video and it was very well done.I was thinking about getting one. It seemed like a good car for the price. I called the U.S. distributor, Bartolo Racing, He's no longer a distributor. So, buying it overseas makes the car much more expensive. If you know of another source here. let me know.

About time, it sounds like the USA has struggled with Xpress distribution.

Other than what looks like DCJ axles, did you have any special parts on that FT1S? It looks pretty close to stock.

Fixed both with my 3D printer.
The front bumper is a little too stiff but gets the job done nicely...



Can you share the file for the front bumper?
