Sure do. They even just re-released the Frog and the Toyota Bruiser. The Bruiser is a beauty, but at roughly $600 just for the car, no can do. I personally am a Tamiya head, and think my next runner might be the Avante. Nasty little bugger with a ton of room for upgrades. My nephew races these things "professionally" and is sponsored by Traxxas. He has more damned gear than you can shake a stick at. Sadly, much of it is not compatible with my gear. Tis a shame.

Jamas, it's still a gamble. Putting all this time/work/money into a house that lost $150k of it's value in the last 5 years is pretty insane, especially since we would like to move to a larger home as soon as we can. But, I refuse to take a huge loss on some buyer's low bid offer, so I am waiting it out and just making it as comfortable as possible for our duration there. As long as we can remain happy in it for now, it works for me.

Oh, forgot to add, the g/f got me some Louis Black tickets as well. SHow in Sept in DC, just before election time.... should be a HOOT!
