Are you being ironic?
If we are to take manufacturer marketing speak as sacrosanct why can't I make the A-finals with my box-stock re-re Tamiya Hornet? The box says its a "1/10 scale
High-Performance RC Car". It must be because I cannot drive properly I guess. No manufacturer has
ever fed the market some BS (especially in a press-release) to stoke up expectations and desire in the wallets of prospective buyers right? Nah, they wouldn't dare, they only ever tell it straight.
As already posted, the proof of the pud will be when the thing is out in the market and being used. Until then its all just speculation anyway.
And there are plenty of "wannabe engineers" on here that may not have a BSc but can give good advice based on experience. I'd rather listen to what someone who has used a product has to say rather than pay any attention to a marketeer/copy writer who probably has no real idea of what he is actually writing about (how many Reliant brand managers actually drove a Rialto for example?).
