lhs owners are also great sources of information. They know about the local racing and flying. They also have experience and own a few kits. Theres a good chance they take em out and drive them around or fly them to show you how they perform if he/she has the time.
My stance on lhs's is that I personally prefer dealing with a real person that you can talk to and joke around with then 18 inches of lifeless changing colors.
