I think it`s a great idea, as you guy`s stated, more people are going to see these truck`s in the store`s and hopefully interest more and more people. As they get into it they will look up RC on the computer and see how big it really is here.

That's EXACTLY what should happen.... it will generate more interest and spread things out to more and more people.... hopefully it will work out that way!

Watch the videos on the link in the first post, the one on tuning is way over simplified.
