Does anybody know what's up with the lack of RX8 availability or when they are going to be available again?

I've been patiently waiting for over a month now to get my Mugen Eco up and running but I'm thinking I may have to break my all Tekin ESC collection up a little here if I don't get one in my hands soon. I can only look at the car so long before the need to get it out on the dirt overtakes the need to buy a Tekin.

Is LRP's 1/8 ESC competitive with Tekin's?
