It seems it's taking a bit of time for the Tamiya vehicle to make some headway into the hands of the racers and of course there are those few that have to try everything out once. But really I have yet to see any big names taking the drivers seat in one of these vehicles.

Locally, I have seen one car on the track and it looks very good. I have heard that there maybe 1 or 2 others who will have one in the future and also that the GFD Racing Team might be supporting them as well.

So, who else maybe interested in getting one, but I have also heard that parts is an issue. What do you think?

you guys @ FT can start carrying stuff for Tamiya and u all set... LOL
Anyway, TAMIYA and Kyosho etc all these Japanese companies have a very long history of RC history. They have good products; TAMIYA does not do enough marketing things to fit USA market. Looks like Tamiya try to make $ from the hardcore RC people now...

Parts is a issue: you mean their durability of availability???

Availability, The durability looks to be just fine.
