Big verse Small
I agree with allot of the points that I have read but I would like too point out some small things.
Companies like Kyosho,Mugen, Xray,Jammin,Ho BAo have been in the market for a longer period of time and they have established brand recognition.There is allot to be said for parts quality,yes allot of the manufacturing is know done overseas but not all companies have the same resources as the larger comapanies when it comes too materials.
Most racers want to enjoy there time at the track and that requires finishing the races and low level repair so they can bench race and enjoy there race buddies.
Good materials help that equation.
