Wow!  The price has come down on those!  USed to be, you could get one for
less than $320 here in the states.  Of course, it appears that retailer is
in Japan, so shipping might add quite a few Yen to the final price :)

I've got a Duratrax 1/10 Nitro-Demon truck with a .21 nitro (fule burning)
motor.  That little thing moves like...I don't know what...effin fast is
what it is.  I've got also got a Tamiya Peugot 206 electric that's also
pretty fast, but not compared to the truck...
