There is a difference between entry level racer and entry level kit. Things like the DF-02 and DF-03 kits are entry level kits for people who want a fun, cheap off road buggy that they can thrash around with at their house, or local park. These kits are not designed to race well in competion events. The DB-01 kits are entry level as well, but designed around the idea that they can be raced, and race well. They have the proper hop ups availible and were designed with a platform to race.
People say that there are enough entry level kits, but it is no different than the on-road side of the hobby. Just because Tamiya has a TT-01 entry level chassis, that doesn't mean they shouldn't have the TA05 too. Both these kits are much different in their intended audience.
Remember, having options is a good thing!
