As long as the clowns who continue to run Hobby Co are still in charge we will not stock Tamiya products any longer here at DMS, their service, knowledge, stock levels, price and back up all border on ridiculous (never mind just poor)

I applaud Marc for trying to get some 201 kits in early, if memory serves me right he has had them online for several weeks now and yet Hobby Co customers get thier first stock today and yesterday (with no bodies for a few weeks I might add). I will also bet that their level of spares support (and I mean key everyday items, NOT just random part numbers they order in that never break) will be very close to zero.

As for the 511, thats another story, the most prominent car at last years Euros, already this years national champion in the hands of Pidge yet zero interest from Hobby Co, very sad to see indeed......

I also feel sorry for Lee, at the end of the day his job is two-fold, primarily to race and win for himself but also to promote and hopefully aid in further sales of more Tamiya products for the company. Whilst I appreciate he races globally, being a UK driver his efforts here are almost in vain due to the lack of support this countries importer gives to the TRF range (except for Lee's loyal followers and admirers who have mainly purchased from HK I guess)......
