Yes, of course Scott at vancouverhobbies.com kicks azz. Bought my mega mt from him and rampage parts from him too. Great service. He's a great choice for Canadian shoppers.

RE: Cheap 5th scale sites ? Looking 2 buy 1 !
I just sold all my redcat stuff... It's not a bad truck for the money to start, but as soon as you add any power (as it desperately needs because it's very heavy) you will start breaking stuff. I'm sure the V3 is better but there is no solid info on what changes were made to v3. Send an email to Rob at rampagehopups he can help you out.

RE: 2 Speed Gear box for HPI
[quote]ORIGINAL: logon69 From my last conversation with Joe it will be very soon. He said that next week should be it. He has had a big issue with his steel hardener getting the work done. I will try to get in touch with him tommorow. I know we are all excited about wrapping our fingers on the 2 speed. I sure was! I know what growing impatient is like as I have no patience for waiting for new RC parts either. Unfortunately when one needs to rely on another company......stuff happens that is out on ones control.  Nothing like relying on someone else to help make you look like an ass. Rest assured they are coming. [/quote] Yes, I agree. I'm feeling better now that you are responding more rationally than NATE. I agree that "stuff happens" but I'm still upset about taking peoples money as I didn't see it as necessary until the units were ready to ship but I am feeling better with your calm, rational responses. I hope you and BRC come through like you said.

Did anyone of you guys say that when TGN/BSW told you 3 yrs ago that there 2 speed was coming out (NO) so why is all this negative talk about? Don't make smart comments to a company thats trying to help better the HPI community. Think positive other than thinking negative and things will go the way you want it[8D] other than that, the video will be posted for all you doubters out there[;)] [/quote] You know, I would have TOTALLY agreed with you BKNate except that they took people's money; that's the only thing I see wrong. You're right, tons of MFG's have come on here and other sites promoting 'upcoming' parts and you're no different, with one massive exception; the money thing.
