Welcome to the light side of TinyRCs. I just wish there was a Viper Zip-Zap Vipers are my religion.

I got my first one last week and I love it too. I have quite a few rc's even a nitro truck which is just plain wicked, but there's something about these tiny little cars that I love. My wife bought me some more goodies for father's day. Here's my updated collection...
Black Mustang Cobra starter kit.
Red Mustang Cobra starter kit.
American favorites body kit.
Musclecar bodies
performance upgrade kit.
1 extra red cobra body which I found out of the package in a case at radio shack today. I asked the guy if he'd sell it to me and he did for 2 bucks.
I'm going to return the red cobra starter kit tomorrow because it has the first pcb which wont work with my faster motor.
I'm gonna exchange it for the orange 350z if they have it.
Does anyone foresee a problem in exchanging it? I did open and use the car but it's in perfect condition and I packaged it up just like new. Anybody know if RS usually pretty cool about exchanges?
As for me I like vipers too, but I really wish they would make a Ford F150 Lightning body. I think that would be cool. Hmmmm perhaps I could make one...
