J/K....

The rs4,though a pretty good car in its early years,was outdated on the first day of the Serpent Impulse intro......

How HPI called that car a racer was beyond me also......

What is Team MPP? Where do you guys race, do you have a webpage? Seems to me there are a few that belong to Palmaris?

Hey at least you maxed out your car I forgot the feeling of how fast a nitro car can get, especially with a modified engine

I appreciate all the replies. Reason I'm really wanting to stock up on parts is that when racing, everybody starts dropping out when we don't have parts support on the shop we run on. The price we pay for racing is already too high just to break and watch on the sidelines.

Talking about just getting a second kit as a spares bag, I just computed how much I'll be spending to get spares off and it's running close to $200. I'm thinking, just add another $160 and you have yourself a WHOLE other car. Now I have to think twice on which path is more worth it. Again, thanks.

Never absent any Taiwanese on-road races each month for many years. So I don't feel that itch. More races spend more money. But you will feel happy when you stand on that awarding stand only. Poor rate of return on investment. Only PUNKs like us would love to do that.
