The elite drivers in the UK are sponsered. Those drivers are not choosing Kyosho because the sponsership deals are just not available in the UK. If Kyosho were to start a proper race team, then I think they would get good race results and better market share. The ZX5 already sells well amoungst club drivers, but I think Kyosho are really missing out on a lot of sales of RB5 by not pushing the car at high level.

It all depends in what you look for from the hobby. If you want a buy a car, download a setup, and just race it, then B4 is definately the way to go. On the other hand if you enjoy tweaking a car and working on setups then something like the RB5 is very rewarding.
