To put things in one word....awesome. 100 dollars for [almost?] Hobby Grade 1/18 is great.

"Now wait a minute Roket, what about the Mini-T?"

True, the Mini-T is affordable, but how many people have a local hobby shop? Since Radioshack's are far more common, I see this as a great way to boost RC as a hobby.

I already have a completely NUKED RC18T. Its waiting for a modded HBZ crashcage. I need replacement 10th scale to 18T wheel adaptors since I torqued mine. Until then I have to run my Mini T. Its been our physics truck for 2 years. Good speed, acceleration, and stability.

They are both listed on Radio Shack's website now as Hobby Grade RC Truck http://www.radioshack.com/product/in...entPage=family

and Hobby Grade RC Buggy http://www.radioshack.com/product/in...entPage=family

Both are listed at $149.99

Also important is that X-Mods and ZipZaps still have not been taken off of the site yet. There may still be some hope in seeing something new in both these lines.

Prices are up.... and wowzers.... I may not be completely familiar with hobby grade 1/18th scale, but I think $30 for a set of tires is a bit much. $50 for the dual motor??? Aren't Losi Mini-T dual motor and around $200?

I'll be passing on the propulse, pretty sure.

If the xmods are being discontinued why are they asking on their site which car models would you like to see?
