thanks !
Yes there is quite a difference between the 2004 edition and the original. If you plan to upgrade, then buy the 04 edition from the start.
Yes this is a REAL race worthy car in all aspects from HPI. The car is not perfect, but every car has its weak points. The best thing about the R40 is that the parts are cheap, its really strong, and HPI has made it really easy to setup with its spacer clip system.
