In short, it is kind of lame that Xray cannot be properly promoted/supported in the UK like Ralph, RC America and Korgae can do it over here in North America.

However it is better represented in the spec 19 class, but a lot of the mirage (distributors for xray, hpi, hot bodies) team drivers have made the switch to hot bodies, mostly down to the incredible results from "moorespeed". Also thanks to chris grainger, the yokomo bd is probably the most popular car in the uk
It's all well and good having these top drivers in faraway lands (well, for some of us
) but I think companies should try a more global effort, as hard as it is.

bigragu, it's not so much the money, although I've heard how xray does their bonus system you can make more money if you do well at the races than you can if you were just on a regular salary. I know of several people that were getting paid by other companies and came back to the RC America team just because of the team work and of course a superior car...
David Alford, what are you talking about AE will be fine, Harry potter give you the low down on whats gonna happen.
