Nope! Not even for Slow Poke Pedro or Speedy Gonzalez. However, I can't wait to get out of here so I can do a little track testing.

we are indeed envious of your latest aquisition let us know it's at all rcp track worthy? i'm guess the scale is just way to big for that kind of track layout.

glad to hear you had a good time at rialto as well the pics are great as usual

Actually, I wasn't referring to running the Half8 on the RCP Track--it's too freaking slow as far as I am concerned in it's stock state. I have ran it in the dirt and on the street, but just with alkalines. There are also photos of it on my RCP Track, but right now my RCP Track is torn up. You'll see why soon, but for now everyone will have to wait. If you plan to run the Half8 on an RCP Track--2 1/2 tiles my work just fine or I would limit it to two buggies per 100cm tile lanes.

I'll probably order a 2nd Half8 so I can hop up one as a sleeper to harass the 1/8th scale buggies and keep one to play with in the house since the hairy kids seem to like the new buggy. They seem to like it about as well as the Monster and Overlands.

i hope that this severely affects the cost of the mini-z in a positive mannor. i think the info that TNB is hiding from us is the ideas that David may become a factory direct dealer for Kyosho, which would be wicked awesome

No, nothing that exciting though I've heard rumor the prices won't change that much.

So i think that maybe they're building a track on site. Maybe even a mini-z track and it will become one of the stops for the Kyosho cup.

I've already talked with their customer service department. Pleasant American guy named Brian. Set me straight on the availability of certain parts that, according to Kyosho, are not for sale through them (but would make an excellent item to sell because there's a solid demand out there for them.) Maybe it's time to get myself a small mold injection press Anyway, you could have found the contact information for their CA office anytime if you looked on the Tower shop by manufacturer page.

BB,
Quite frankly, the new site was only of some interest to me since the previous Kyosho website was down recently. Consequently, I simply thought it may have been of interest to others and a way of quashing any rumors started on this forum as what has been apparently going on regarding Iwaver/Toy East since that website apparently went down. However, in the future I will try not to assume.
