I think though that we have kind of turned into a hobby grade now everyone is making their own bodies for them, customizing the chassis beyond what RS supplies.
Yah, people have made the Gen1's hobby grade, but the custom chassis beyond RS isn't new. You can get aftermarket stuff for most Hobby Grade cars. But that sinister Gen1 is deffinately hobby grade.

You can convert it to full electronics and all, but it won't be hobby grade, it will sit just below the line. Even then, you can tell a diffrence. Now, I haven't driven and Evo with the full GPM Driveline and gears and such, but that's alot of money to drop into it just to get it to roll smooth.
