The Australian distributor Hobbies Australia has plenty of stock, i recieved mine nearly 2 weeks ago now. Having switched over from Tamiya, my first race meeting with the WC was the Reedy Race of Asia, held in Thailand, running modified class, managed to take home 2nd place.

I am very impressed with the Cyclone, the sweet point seems to be much broader than the 415. with plenty of grip available from the chassis.

Only weak point so far seems to be the diff screw, i am going to try drilling out the outdrive as suggested on here previously.

Heya guys.

This may be one huge stupid question but heck.

If you wanted to go from the black to the WE. Could you be able to buy HPI/HB Purple bulkheads etc so you can change the colour along with the shock shafts shock towers bla bla bla?

Thanks,

Willz

review why you really need the new parts, if your car is fine leave it and save up for a new kit, if you dump a ton of money into your old car, you will still have an old car with a few new bits on it. there is nothing like driving a new car that is all tight no dodgy driveshafts etc.
