I'm also interested to see where he goes with electronics, he ran 100% yokomo up to now.
AE could offer a full deal with ESC/Motor/battery
Would also be a chance to move away from Japan and learn a new language - if that's his thing.

True, but it doesn't stop Rheinard and Groskamp etc.
Not convinced 1/12th would be the decider. Surely with the worlds being off road this year that is more important.
Tamiya aren't awesome in that department either really - did have good results with Lee Martin previously, but they have basically zero presence in off road now - the team has scaled back quite a bit.
