Lets face it, companies saw how traxxas was turning a great profit and they want a piece of that action also. People would walk into a hobby shop and walk out with a RTR jato, revo, rustler.....etc. People like simplicity, most people are not wrench heads like we are. They want to buy it and have it running in five minutes. Then break and buy parts or have the hobby shops fix it for them. Losi a.k.a. Horizon Hobby saw that they could possibly do the same thing and that is where we are currently. Back in the days you could not get a kit built and if you did it was because your local hobby shop built it and added an extra hundred or two to the price tag. I do not have any problem with where they are going, i would just like to see them keep their racing quality and bashers seperate and i am sure most you feel the same way. just my 2 cents.
