Tony, you're not kidding! LOL I might need to bring the big boy diapers too!

That track looks off the hook! That's a cross over you could ride a CR through!

Wow, that is unlike any track I have ever been on, that's for sure! Looks like it's going to be fun times, I can't wait, is it 5 yet?!!? Looks like you really don't want to hit those posts under that step-down platform

Man I can't wait for this!

no one in Vegas carries D8 parts. There should be a few sponsored drivers from HB their though.

Best bet is to talk with the team drivers. Losi support here is really sad. Dansey's may have a few parts.
