if i were to choose all over again i would still go for the impluse because of the support and the in-house race that they organise every month.

price wise, it sure is EXPENSIVE!!!!

which makez me wonder if the GS vision might be my next car.

GS is a manufacturer of RC products. And I think the GS vision is their new nitro TC.

I agree with what fuse01 said about the impulse- gd support and the impulse challenge race, but it is quite expensive though.

GS = General Silicones.

Here is a link with some pics about their 1/10 tourer the GS Vision. You can see it in action friday nights at RC Speedway.

BTW, for the Tamiya Cars, there is TG10R and TGR, the TGR is a supersized 1/10 kinda like Kyosho superten, I do not think that's race legal in a 1/10 race...

Mmm given from the list I'd choose:

For Race
1. TG10R or Yokomo GT4 Pro (Tough choice)
2. No other choice for now...

For Fun
TGR with dual exhaust mod like R32's TGX It's not about speed but *cool* factor ;-)

ijnek: R32 has a TGX with dual exhaust. I was told it was acquired from japan. Alternatively, you can view the back pages of RC World, I believe there are some companies selling those stuffthere.
