Hi Paul,

Yes, the bumpers are the same.

I never pass up on anything that is lighter or stiffer.

I just got off the phone with hot bodies, they say that the release date is set for some time in july, he also said that the front chubs and a arms are the same as the pro 4. So well see if thats really the case but its good news.

Had a very close look at the Cyclone at RCX yesterday. Looks very promising. Asked Andy and he insisted the price is the $630.00 I said yea right and he didn't say I was wrong. Guess they are trying to find out what people are actualy willing to pay. My guess is $430.00 street price. Steve have to get his ultra smooth price slashing ninjas out for this kit.

But as for the car. It seems that it wil proform as well as any of the current batch of cars out, but lets just say. It was really light....Even fully loaded it was still in need of 120Grams just to make weight...Eek that might be hard to find a place for all that weight..

Hope Reedy is won by one of the the newer cars cause if Mark wins with the 415 again....People might start buying that kit again.
Hope the WEIGHT oops wait is worth it.

just casting salt right in the wounds...hey what doesn't kill you only makes you stronger...LOL
