Seems like one of those fad things. Bunch of people will buy them, play a bit, get bored, then sell them off.
Eh, but whatever.. as long as you have fun.

I agree that for the price, a crt.5 would probably be a better option for the track. But if you are a backyard basher, the smaller size actually does help. Its hard to bash my crt.5 in my backyard, but my little 1/18th's are perfect for that space.

That being said, I'm still on the fence with these trucks. I think they look cool, but I still believe a properly set up vendetta ST or xray m18mt would blow this thing away (performance wise).
