I think Speedtech will have them in before the Snowbirds get here as he does normally have them in stock.

did someone mention spliff?

how come companies have started including one-ways with their kits..like the xray FK, hpi pro4, cuda R2/R3 (dunno bout the original cuda), tamiya 415 (not sure about evo4)...not everyone lives near huge tracks..big enough for F1 cars to race around em
