Have seen it posted and I have to say i think it looks excellent. My std ZX5 lives on, though it looks like my 6yo is in the process of adopting it, albeit with the EPA turned down a bit....

I'm tempted to treat myself to a new car, but am a bit concerned about getting spares. Seems DMS have stopped stocking Kyosho gear and they have always been reliable and helpful. Other sites don't even seem to have the basics stocked, W5028 spare wheels for instance ( I waited 3 weeks to get 2 sets for my old Lazer)

Always liked Kyosho gear since my original Turbo Scorpion, the Optima, Optima Pro, Mid etc (when I retired ) but if both me and my son start racing, i wont have time or funds to play hunt the spares, and heresy though it sounds, it might be less agg to by a couple of B4.1s.... and sadly, on the cost front again, I can get a 4.1rtr for him and a 4.1FT for me for about the same price as an FS2.

Is the market in the UK too small for Kyosho as compared to Associated, they don't seem to make much of a play (not fair to compare to Schumi being UK based company)
