Ok... I said I would eat crow... You were right, I'm stoked! Anyway I have put a request into my buddy to pre-order 2 for me.
The 1:1 car looks like Jays 1:1 car with RC10 box art colored panels on it. Last I saw his car was all red at a Lucas oil race here. I had a feeling that it might be that type of buggy. Not disappointed at all. It would have cost a ton of money for them to make a 1:1 RC10. Last I saw Jays Dad, he gave us a tour of Tony Stewarts garage in NC. My wife and I were personally invited by Jay to attend while we were there for 1/8 worlds. His dad manages or at least used to manage Smokes garage. Its been a few years. One of the coolest things I have been privi too.

Hugger,
Sorry, I guess no one has answered, because no one knows yet. I would guess TowerHobbies.com. They are a big retailer for AE and do pre-orders all the time.
Keep checking back, we are all waiting to hear where we need to spend our money
James.

I called my buddy who owns a hobby shop. They don't have a number yet, so when they get one they can basically put it on back order through distributors.

I hope there is a good online place to order, No local shop deals with AE anymore
I'd think they would at least back order but they only thing they do with AE is get rid of the products. Almost every part they have is marked down to $1 though.

I'll definitely be pre-ordering one or maybe two kits. I was in diapers when the original car came out, and raced a C.E. many years later.
When is the TQ-10 kit coming out?

I just placed my pre order with the LHS, said at $250 there is very little margin so the prices you see at tower will be pretty standard. I still bargained a little tho
If its pre built I will be pissed
