Hint to Kyosho USA: If you are not going to consider open distribution or at least loosen restrictions then ...
Appoint at least one authorized Internet dealer to service your North American customers who do not have a participating HTA dealer in there area. I can guarantee this will help with the launch of the dNano. This site's online store is probably the logical choice, since the only information on dNano in the US (and Canada, where I'm from) is funneled through here. If it's a US exclusive provision with HTA that's genuinely holding you back, then I can certainly direct you to reliable Canadian distributors who would be happy to service the NA market. In addition to shutting out unresponsive grey-marketers that simply give the car an undeserved bad name, opening distribution will actually help the involved HTA stores by raising awareness for a product with a lack-luster introduction and very little advertising whatsoever.
In this economy, you need to service your customers first; the online racing and organized leagues will only work after you have a large base of happy dNano owners. For some reason you seem to want to put the cart before the horse.
