Check out the servo mounting.

check out the suggested retail.ha ha ha

MSRP is a really weird in RC. The MSRP is setup so that a discount structure can be put in to give distributors/dealers and drivers a discount and still allow the manufacturer to make a profit. Look back on some really old 10L boxes, the MSRP was rediculous then as well.

Where is this car made? Is it a USA car or is it made by Thunder Tiger and made in China or wherever they are?

I heard it contained all Metric screws! :confused:

I believe that. The front end is metric as well as the shocks.

one thing i dont get is why call it a R5? why not call it a L5? what does the R stand for?

Maybe it is like in the movie "A Christmas Story". Remember when they went to Christmas dinner at the Chinese resturant and the waiters were singing Jingle Bells?

Has to be one of the greatest movies of all time!!!! :thumbsup:

so when will it be out, anyone have an idea of the date and what do you think a normal joe-schmo will pay for it?

I'm beating it will be about 60% of the $400+ price.

Tower has the car for $415.00 and yes the whole car is metric. The "Christmas Story" pun is really funny.

Hope dem boyz don't run caps! Three R's and an R RR! lol

I seem to remember that tower shows the high price until they actually have the item.

Tower has it listed in stock and at $269.99

That's the on-road car you see at 269.99.

Is it?? DOH!!! my bad.

So, has one heard from the Team Drivers on how the car handles?

Anything will be better than "RC10L3.75"; which started out as an L3 8 years ago and has been morphed close to an L4.

Tower has the car for $315

Stormer Hobbies $299

Ripoff5

Ripoff5Now that's funny.:roll:

At 299$ for a brand new design I wouldn't exactly call it a ripoff.

Refurb!

LOL, Jump to a conclusion! Maybe I meant Ripoff the corner or I was using ripoff like "Bad to the bone".....Thanks, now My feelings are hurt.........
