Default Thought I would ask the question

Watching the for sale section for the last couple of weeks, and been wondering whats the score, as it seems the saying "will the last one out turn off the light" with the supported drivers????

Hi Dave,

People often sell cars this time of year! end of the season for most and looking for new car for Xmas and beyond.

We have lost a few drivers recently! But why is that and what does that mean? I guess that's what you want to know?

We have had in recent years great sales with the 10th line up! we got back the sales we missed for many years when Ripmax stopped a lot of the Effort they did with Kyosho and team drivers etc!

This was also due to having great new cars to push!

Actually we have got a lot more drivers on board in Midlands and North of the Country where we lacked some presence. So overall the supported drivers have increased. We lost 4 drivers we supported directly and i think 2 through Shops. This was largely due to one Company targeting our team ( we take that as a compliment as clearly we was doing some good) The cost to said company to get the drivers on board was not small!! and from results i have seen so far perhaps not well spent.

We now have a very good 4wd Buggy, the old Lazer was good but the ZX6 has once again pushed the performance, You may have seen Boots has won last 2 big events with the Lazer ZX6 beating Some big names like Jorn Neumann and Tom Cockerill.

This with our new Lower price on the RB6 should help our sale drive into 2015. After all its sales in shops that count for us.

Fair enough. Interesting points well put, kyosho pits will seem very quiet now without a certain caricature.
