They have import taxes here - when you import items into the country you pay 17%VAT and another 4.+++% for something else. For some it is not worth it, they get paid in pounds anyway so they are used to it. Not me. I wish I got the same amount per year, but in pounds. That would be an 82% pay raise.
I wish!

Well I'm in the military.. and don't have to worry about import taxes... I have a military address and have no trouble at all mail-ordering. Ha Ha I'm very NOT european. Ohio born and raised. This hobby actually sucks here.. Weather is really lousy and everything is either hard to find or extremely expensive... (thats where my mail order advantage comes in)

This engine does accept easy start, It is rear exhaust and it is a medium block engine not big nor small but medium. Supposedly with tons of torque. I preordered it already. Will let you know sometime if february how things go.

Someone has either produced or is in the process of producing a .21 drop-in. I think it's Sirio - can't be too bad. Oh never mind, you want to keep the EZ start. I don't know whether this engine will/does accept it.

Woa hold up i have a sirio .18 right now in my t-maxx. The thing is simple for me to tune and it is a powerhouse. Love the motor i compare it's reliability to my competition heli motors realiability, which is a YS .91. Both great engines but then again so is the Fantom. Wish i could race a fantom motored t-maxx but i have no one to play with when it comes to nitro cars 
Any one want to play... lol

its between a small block and big block they say and i believe its a picco .21. im not positive but i think i read that sumwhere i would get the fantom as ive herd alot of bad things about the sirio. but it could be that alot of people with sirios arent tuning them right but i cant imagine it. ive herd very VERy FEW bad things about fantoms so one is falling into my truck this january
