Default Xmods Dropped by RS!!!

i was in RS today getting some stuff for my new 69 camaro and i was talking with the manager about new xmods...

he said "Radio Shack is DROPPING xmods."

ProPulse is replacing them!!!!

this is why they are on clearence at ALL stores. get them while you can cause once they are gone there wont be any more at Radio Shack.

someone else might pick them up and start carrying them in store (and i hope so), but Radio shack wont be carrying them any more.

just thought everyone might want to know this.

thanks,
MC4L

!^%#@!^$ That sucks! Every time something cool and fun comes out they have to take it away! RS is a bunch of money-hungry greedy f*cks! Not all of us can afford a propulse! All this is is a way for them to make us spend more money. I love capitalism and a free market economy but **** it ****es off sometimes! As far as a petition even if there were thousands of people that signed it RS wouldn't change a thing. Signatures on a petition are no guarantee that people will buy something. Petitions are usually only good in political matters. Oh well, mini-z here I come!

We should start a petition...I hope someone else picks up Xmods though...I hate to see such a promising line of RC cars just wasted.
