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? :mrgreen:

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 8)

If its pre built I will be pissed
