I cant believe no one got a pic of the lovely and oh so HOTT, miss rc car action or whoever she was. I did not pay much attention to what she was promoting and didnt care for that matter! She had my attention!

Is there a reason to use DA200 where the DA170 is so powerful and light?

Thanks,
Guy.
Is there a reason some people buy a Ferrari when a "Le car" will get them to the same location, and yet the Farrari costs 70 times as much?

Were GUYS! Thats's why!

It has more HP, more Cylinders, better sound, the "Cool " factor" it's a MUST have for anyone who is anyone.

Nice writeup tank.

I did have one gripe though, there werent many good deals going on this year and the swap area was a little lacking for me.

I remember the Bruckner hobbies guys were selling futaba 3003's for 10 bucks thinking it was a great deal, while i could go to tower hobbies and get them in bulk for a little cheaper. but hey, who uses 3003's anyway?

I agree, not much in the way of good deals but hey in this economy, who wants to give anything away? I can't blame them. I will say that it pays to look around before you buy. A friend of mine wanted a 7955tg and saw it for 115.00 and ended up buying from another vender for $90.00

Nice write up John, it was good to see the turn out considering the way everything's been going with the economy and all. Everyone still seems to band together, that's what makes the hobby what it is. Hopefully this continues throughout the year and things turn around for those who are struggling now.
