Correct, the American market is huge compared to that of the UK and I'm not saying they can't or shouldn't cater for particular market segments, that's entirely up to them. But if they turn their back on some of their consumers, how can they expect them to remain loyal to the brand?
It's their change in attitude that I find a turn off. It may well be good fortune that their cars work well in the UK, but in the past I always felt they at least had an interest in the UK 1/10 OR market. Now after various parts shortages and the potential withdrawal of certain kits they seem to be saying "do what you like, we don't care."
I guess I'm so disappointed because I've always held Losi in high regard and find it a shame that they're acting as they are.
