Matched cells give way more punch, and the cells I buy will be the highest voltage a company offers.
Also, I'm going to race with them....

What makes the matched packs so much better is that every cell is good, but where as in a normal pack with no rating you don't know what each cell is like, you could have duds in there.

yeah, but you also get it faster from tower![X(] Oh, well. You get what you paid for. Just have to be patient i guess eH?

Total was only $104, which is pretty good for a prepainted and pretrimmed TT-01 with an ESC. Tower sells the same thing for $104 before tax and shipping.

$36 for shipping?!?!?! You could have ordered from tower with 2nd day air for only $28 shipping!!!

I've gotten mixed reviews from others. Some people don't have a problem with their service, and other hate them. They seemed to have the best deal (even with $36 shipping!) and seemed to be legit, so i ordered it.

toyeast? Never heard of em.
Yup!!! Should have ordered from tower!!!

And anyways, i can't complain. I'm getting batteries, a charger and controller and the electronics from a friend anyways (spiftacu1ar over here) so i'm saving a lot of money.

got my Escort Cossie TT01 today, great service from Bolton Model Mart (kit £49.99 + free delivery, UK), looking forward to building it, its looks amazing on the box. might order some hop ups while i'm on the net!

the Tamiya model range is limited, but the price is unbeatable
ordered: bearings, oil shocks, alu prop shaft, metal motor mount and the alu steering link, would have been £78 ($130) in UK, £42 ($70) from Hong Kong, bargain!

WHOOHOO! I got a reply! And they don't have it in stock.[:@]
They're refunding the money instead. I"m just going to go to tower and order it there probably.
I actually want a M-03M.

The M-03M is too expensive for me though. I want prepainted.
