Hi all,

I am looking to join in on some local (MN, USA) GT12 class fun and really like the looks of the P12G (151015). Actually, I prefer the looks of the (older?) P12-2017 (p/n 151006), but I am assuming this is a disco'd model. I don't think I am a fan of an aluminum chassis, so would prefer to stick to carbon/ball diff/traditional servo setup. I've run CRC and SM kits in the past, but think I'd like to try something different this time around. Also, the quality looks a little better w/the Roche kits over the current CRC and SM offerings, but maybe I'm a bit off in that assessment.

A couple of questions:

1. I see that these are on backorder on the Roche Intl. website, and I do not even see them avail on the Roche USA site. Any idea if/when we might see more available?
2. Would it be possible to convert the P12G to a more conventional servo setup?

Lastly, does anyone have any experience running the GT12 series w/these cars? I've been out of the hobby for roughly 15 years, so there's a lot of catching up to do.

Thank you,

Matt
