Sure, just let me know when you are coming over next year. November is a good month to visit, there's alot of RC Racing going on in those months plus the new tracks around Manila, that will be great!

Are there any parts that need to be upgraded for the R2 to be really competitive?
Will the R3 include all these hop ups already or not?

It's 2.44. The R3's battery and motor placement were slightly moved by some mm. Plus the sprakly chassis and the new drive system. If I had the money, I'd get an R3 for stock racing and a Xenon stage 3 for Mod racing

for 220v...I guess we'll have to car some sort of voltage transformer...but I think my Integy/Indi transformer is dual voltage

I wonder how hard it would be to find a voltage transformer, and what they would cost...

Herminator: Well said bro Although in my experience, the alloy shaft holders are a must due to chassis flex. The plastic ones are really bad, you can hear the bevel and diff gear slip during hard cornering. This not only protects the Spur gear but the drivetrains gears aswell. Whether it's an R2 or the new R3 Just my .02cents

They are nice in any class of racing, makes the drive train rock solid with the optional and R3 motor mounts
