Spares are easy to still get as well.

I concur on the plastic drive shafts - I think they are bullet proof.
I have never raced a YZ-10 or Optima but I have raced a Cat2000 & EC on carpet regularly, and I thought it was superb, to the point it actually got quite boring as it was so well behaved... I cannot think of any down points really, it was bullet proof and quick, and pretty much the car to have at my club during that era. The drive train had quite a bit of drag, but this is completely canceled out with modern batteries and motors!
