Hmm I only found six and none are news or reviews. But I'm sure he loved your smart arse answer though:roll: Reminds me of a t shirt I saw a guy wearing the other day, it said "Dont be a Dick".

Here's a vid from Horizon,

Not much more info except some other sites threads with people crying about Losi.

The Mini T was cool and this is pretty much just like it, seems a little cheap though.
