Fair point mate and I've just checked online as we could do with some spare bearings, the HPI original kit bearings are like rocking horse ****.
I suppose John will just have to ask and trust that teams use standard rubber shielded metal bearings if replacing the kit ones. I'm sure this was how we rolled (ha!) last time unless anyone emailed John and justified a set of £90 ceramic bearings on the sly. But this is the point I was trying to make, with the way it worked last year, although a little extreme the other teams would be non the wiser.
I've never been on RCBearings, just had a look - £13.20 for a full set. Cheers Jason, good shout.
