:) Prior to the Aero being announced I emailed Gerd Strenge to find out if it was possible to buy a Durango and never even got a reply. All I can say is that I've put our names down for two of these buggies and I intend to keep them there.
I really couldn't give a 4 X about the in fighting it could be called a Bo**ocks as far as I'm concerned, as long as when the time comes that I hand over my hard earned money I get what I've paid for!

As for dragging Lee into this I think it's a bit unfair to draw him into making comments about something over which he has no control.:)

loose 25-04-2007 10:19 PM

Along with my collegue Gordon (Gord) Strange I have designed a new car based on the Tango. It will be released under the monika of "The Bero" and is significantly lighter than its competitors. Our factory driver Martin Lee is kickin ass on preliminary tests.

Orders will be takes soon with all proceeds contributing to my wine cellar (rack). Cos I've put a big dent in it trying to keep up with this thread.

Peace. :cool:

ApexSpeed 25-04-2007 10:26 PM

I donno about you guys, but I'm FAR more interested in knowing who the "major player" in the R/C racing world is that struck the deal with Gerd, and now will be responsible for the attack dogs sent out to "chat" with Aero.



Yummm... let's speculate... Schumacher? Xray? Corally? Maybe Associated? Honestly, if it's any mass market company with refined production skillz, then I WANT ONE. :D




Boy, this has been a fun day in la la land. :o :eh?:

Never a truer word spoken. All the clarification that's needed is the name of who the "design" or whatever was sold to, along with the patents. Till then, best of luck to Aero, Lee and all associated with the project.

Innocent until proven guilty.

dave g 25-04-2007 11:19 PM

well i would have thought maybe someone like xray,cant see corally wanting to get into the offraod scene,schumacher...hmm no,everyone else seems to have their own cars so stumped..

xx4 fanatic 25-04-2007 11:29 PM

losi hasn't had a quality new 4wd car in a while...but i dont see them buying it and Gil Losi doing his stuff at Kyosho

Spencer Mulcahy 25-04-2007 11:57 PM

I fore one feel sorry fore Lee with all this going on the man just won his first national and I know that it ment alot to him from his reaction on the rostrum at the end, so dont let all this shite take anything away from you Lee you drove one of the most mature races I have seen for a long time and try to forget all this ready for Kiddy in two weeks:)

Ron Burgundy 26-04-2007 12:08 AM

After reading all the to'ing and fro'ing, it is quite strange and disturbing, firstly to question lee's professionalism and then in one particular instance to have a go at all parties involved.. pretty silly hey

I dont think people really have any idea of the enormity of this, the net makes the world a very very small place and a huge amount of money and people are involved...

Its best to end the speculation, enjoy the racing and stay well and truly out of it all as it is of no concern to any of us what happens behind closed doors - not one of us has any money involved i will guarantee..

To all who want one of these cars whether it be a Durango, Aero one or unkown name, why worry about it... Noone can get or afford a Durango so forget it there, Aero may not have a car soon so forget it there, and the unkown "RC Player" may be producing it soon so forget it there for the meantime.. You guys are all going to get your hands on the car at some stage in your lives and I also can guarantee that it not because of a loyalty to Aero, who cares who the company is, its the car you all want and the car that you will get - EVENTUALLY...

SO I guess the bottom line is, let it all play out and unfold, dont add your stupid two cents about who is right and who is a theif and let it go!

You will all have a "DURAERANON" in the near future! (like the name, i made that one up all by myself):yawn:

Teddy truman 26-04-2007 07:02 AM

what a mess. but does it really matter to any of us?:o I for one am quite close friends with the aero team and in the past they have shown me no reason for me to call them liars, so im not going to start now. i believe what gerd is doing is very wrong!!!! this should have never been put to a r/c mag online that's just plane wrong.:mad: I am sure that bob and his business uni boff's behind the project have some grounds to go on.

pilow 26-04-2007 07:25 AM

It's already public, Gerd did nothing wrong to then bring his side into the open, people are nice and friends and lose money on both sides, but at the end of the day one guy made this car, and if you were him you would do more! Any of us would, to protect our years of hard work.

Teddy truman 26-04-2007 07:34 AM

what Gerd did was very wrong! this should have all been sorted before brought up on the internet/ released to mag's how people can not see that...... What he has done yeah i can see what he is doing, but its plane bitchy now.

jimmy 26-04-2007 07:45 AM

I would be a hipocrite if I did not step in here and say I 100% agree with someones right to issue a statement to put their side into the public domain.

Whether you agree / believe either party is another matter.

Closed, to cool things down! :)

JBRacing 26-04-2007 09:04 AM

I really don’t get this guy!!!!!
I think that there is a lot that is not being said on print….
There could be an option that the , Mr. Strenge was about to sell to Aero the company and before he did he got a better offer and sold it to some one else (which for some reason he doesn’t say his mane).
By the way, were is this "Major player"?!?!?!? I know that if I was to by a company for a great deal of money and some one stole my rights I would sue them to there last buck. But this guy, he sits quite and doing nothing! I find it to be very suspicious…
Any way, if there were rights stole it is a criminal violation and Aero would have been sued by now but they weren't! (I wonder…..)

I wish Aero the best of luck with their project and always remember that there is no "bad publicity" and this guy just did you a favor….

Good luck

I agree Aero have been working on this a year (they said) so why hasnt Gerd done anything before?

jimmy 26-04-2007 09:26 AM

Good day,

Your second line voids the rest of your post-
"I think that there is a lot that is not being said on print….

But then you proceed to attack the reputation of various people on things you have only assumed and speculated about. I don't like to see anyone attacked with a blunt axe of rumour and gossip - which is whyI closed the thread that this post should have been in.

The only FACT you stated is that there is a lot being said that you don't know about. So lets leave it there.

Gerd found out about this project a little over a week ago. (again, please READ the statements by both parties)

I will accept your comment although I don't agree with it and I will explain:
As things are said through the on going announcements between Aero and Mr. Strenge, It is a FACT stated By Mr. Strenge that he is no longer the owner of his past company and there for he has no right of blaming anybody for anything. The only one how can retaliate to Aero's actions and publicity is the NEW and secret owner of "Durango".
Mr. Strenge (and what I'm about to say is arguable) could have helped Aero even with the slightest of advise and they may say that the consulted with him (legally speaking)
My biggest wonder is of the whereabouts of this third party. I don’t see any logic for a company to seat quite when her rights are being publicly stolen. Unless this third party doesn't exist or on the other hand that there were no violation of rights.

jimmy 26-04-2007 09:49 AM

Exactly.
The point is that we don't know the facts, but people are talking like they do. We can talk about what is public knowlege, but when it comes to attacking companies for no reason other than bias its a step too far.
Worse yet is attacking an individual - and I find it incredibly bad taste.

dave g 26-04-2007 09:51 AM

maybe the 'other' company prefers to sort this out in a less public matter and may be doing this as we speak,either way none of us know what is true or false,only 3 parties know this so lets leave that upto them to sort out,i just feel sorry for lee.

dave

jimmy 26-04-2007 09:58 AM

Again you are stating as Fact something you have no idea about. Your opinion is one thing, stating facts is something that should be reserved for the players involved.

DCM 26-04-2007 10:03 AM

As this goes on, it gets rather petty, I am sure everything will come out in the wash as to what conspired to get to the events we seen yesterday.

Exactly, I mean, what effect do we have making any theories or suggestions on the topic?

None.

So I for one am going to sit down, shut up, and enjoy waiting for the aero, as I am sure this will be rectified soon.

JBRacing 26-04-2007 10:27 AM

I would like to add an apology if I sounded accusing in any matter of Gred personaly.

Lee Martin 26-04-2007 10:46 AM

jimmy,

hate to be a player hater here.....but if you are getting a little annoyed with speculation and peoples ideas then your going against you own worded and your in agreement that this should not have been brought into the public eye.

its one way round or the other....

thanks for everyones support regarding myself its good to see and helpful.

jimmy 26-04-2007 10:52 AM

Not really lee, it was already 'in the public eye' before it was on this forum.
Discussing stuff is fine, attacking individuals isn't.
