Whatever you opinion is on the price, it's all cool. But what we need to do is to stop bashing on the Mugen USA team drivers. Team drivers are the ones that do R&D to make products better. Without them, we wouldn't have improved products, setup to based our cars on. Without their drivers, Mugen Seiki wouldn't be where they are today. This isn't just Mugen USA, this happens to every manufacturers. Money spent on HPI goes toward Hara's expenses, Yokomo and Masami, Kyosho and Collari, so on so forth.
Bashing them is getting close to being personal insults, and that is not cool. And I've said this before and I'll say it again, I've had very minimal contacts with Mugen USA, but those very little contacts with these nice people asserted me that I'll choose to run a Mugen instead of Kyosho next year.

And I really don't care whether the Kyosho is faster or the new Mugen is faster, it was Mugen USA that sold me on sticking with Mugen.
