I saw this on Tele, the first issue is cheap (as always) but how much are the following issues going to cost?

[ChArMs_RT142]

[BigBum]

Imagine missing out and not being able to get the last issue

$1400+ down the drain :P

lols. you know what. it would be cheaper if you go to the shops and buy one =D instead of waiting for all the issues. of course you won't have the magazine, but you'd still have the car =D and you'd probably save about a grand or more

[ChArMs_RT142]

are u serious???

[miss.ht]

yups! you can buy models that you can build at some shops. they come in a box and you can paint them and everything. though i have to say they can be hard to find. but if you find a decent hobby shop somewhere, they're bound to have one. i'm not too sure about the price, but i'm pretty sure it would come in at a lot less than $1400!

Yeah like the Tamiya hobby kits. Not sure if they have the BMW M3 GTR though.

I think this might be the kit in question since the rear wing looks to be made by HPI. This one is Ready-To-Run (RTR)

If this is the kit the RS4 chassis is pretty good. I recommend the RTR because they include everything and are the best to get started with.

Just saw the ad. They say it is a Thunder Tiger chassis, nothing wrong with them but HPI is a lot better. And it looks like they are using a HPI body anyway. (www.hpiracing.com)

Depends on what you get with it and the level of spec.

You can get a cheap gas buggy $389

or a Nissan 350Z or Supra around $500 in Aussie hobby stores.

But $1400 that's a bit expensive

and everyweek.. i'll just report to the publisher.. and claim it a SHORTAGE.. :P
