Guys, here in Canada we are used to no "backup" for cars. Rare are hobby shops that carry parts for the cars, and then it's only a small selection of AE or Losi parts. So ordering online for parts is a fact of life. Luckily, with places like Race and drift Japan, order times are very low ( I get my stuff within a week! That's fater than my hobby shop gets AE parts). The real inconvenience is shipping costs, forcing you to plan ahead and group needed parts in a single order as much as possible.
I don't know about you, but my Yokomo is incredibly tough! It very seldom breaks, reducing my need to order spares...
Cheers!
