Default Motonica - finally

Finally we got some info on this car. Have family in Italy. Sending one in mail in one week. Not sure on US sales yet. Pirce is not comparable with 960. More like SMP Slide prices - around 850 Euro approx. $1,000.00 US.

Are we paying for looks, extra durability, will this car keep the trophy chicks near, or increase our odds of winning the lotto?

I got to admit the motinica is a nice looking ride. Looks like a plastic Slide. I wish these guys the best. I know what its like to be the counted out underdog. A G is kind of steep though. They are going to struggle if they are at that price. When your the underdog you have to come in at the bottom of the pack until you prove you got a little whoop azz for the opponent.

I agree. I dont think too many are willing to fork over $1,000.00 for an RC car. By the time your done with Engine its pretty steep. I had to sell of all my cars to do this. I hope it is not a piece of sh**. We will see.. I will post pics in a few weeks. Hopefully..

Wow... taking a close look at the assembly manual I must say I am not very impressed. I have a feeling this is a great looking car, smoothe lines very low cg. I am really getting confused... What to do?

During the EC-B at Trembley some drivers competed with this car, they could not compete up against the 960 or MRX.

Thats the info I am looking for.. Some of these cars look great but don't hold up on the track... I want results from my cars. I don't really want a great lookin car that handles like crap... I need the goods.. Appreciate the info. Anyone else have any in sight.... 960 is starting to look better and better... And I'll have some money left.

If you could support your findings with facts would be good , a lotta hobbyist loves to put others down so to keep their brand market up ,if you know what I mean.
