Is everyone in the US having problem getting parts or am I
the only one-- and don't say subsitute 103/104 parts cause their like hens teeth too.
I had to "engeneer"some front uprights(steering block)to make a race last week. May have to resort to ordering from HK or some other overseas shop-even 3racings site has them on BO.

-- wth??whenever a new kit comes out you always have trouble getting parts. it seems 3racing did not expect this car to get so popular so quikly they seem to be behind in producing replacment parts. i have however been having a big issue finding tires. everyone is out of f103 tires and the ones i find are pretty expencive with shipping from the uk or hong kong. the u.s. just isn't that big into f1 racing. its a shame

i have been buying from rcmart.com they have stuff in stock. i have been making larger orders so the shipping and the wait is worth it.

I received my F109 kit yesterday, wahoo!
Are the stock tires useable or should I be looking at something different right away? It "seems" like the local F1 guys are running Tamiya A foams in the front and B foams in the rear on their Tamiya F1 cars on our good traction asphalt track.
I also am not sure if I should be looking for F104 or F103 tires/rims. I looked at some today in a shop and it looks like the F104 version runs a larger dia rim and lower profile tire. Are there any other differences?
Thanks in advance for any tips on tire setups.

The stock F109 tires are actually really good. A lot of guys also like the Zen tires for outdoor.
