Thumbs up

I E-mailed Elsa Hu at Magic beginning of the month, and was told it should be out for sale the middle of the month (this month) and also stated "confirmed" the street price will be 175$.

Hope this helps.

Looks nice enough, but ive never been drawn to the drivetrain layout... And being from the UK I would have doubts about parts backup.

My ta05 has been solid for a year too, very little has gone wrong with it for a newbie/mid range car

Time will tell as always if its got what it takes to be a good car, but as said, it does look nice

i beleive parts would be harder to get in the US seeing as team magic is a non-us based company *shrugs*

Team Magic is a Taiwanese company.

I'm pretty sure CML over here has (or are planning to) dropped the TM range.

If you look hard enough, you will find stores that sells plenty of Team Magic parts and kits....for example, WOLF HOBBIES over California is one of them. Give them a call or checkout their site. From what I heard, they are top notch ppl to deal with....

On the other hand....this is something perfect for GT3 (silver can or 22.5) stock or super stock...even 10.5. I am also wondering if I am only adding couple minor upgrade, how close can this JS compare to the RS...?

I think, on carpet racing, there are different...but on outdoor parking lot track, they can be very very close.

For those concern about LIPO...it fit Team Orion 4800 without any mod. I think it is even better then E4RS...I am loving it.

With the right amount of parts support, it could be a very good contender for a properly structured spec series race event, aka the HPI challenge that we had in the UK a few moons ago.

10 car grid line ups, J mains..... great fun.

What happens to the car after that though... who knows? Move onto the drift scene? Club level spec car?

I just don't think it has the potential to steal sales over the TA05, or other mid range cars to make a big impact.... imho.....

Time will tell
