I would recommend, www.rc-car-online.de, for all parts related to FG. I have ordered several times from them and have been happy every time.

+1 on the rc-car-online store.
One thing I would say is that they are very quick and prices are ok but shipping can be costly. On larger orders it's very reasonable but for smaller orders the shipping costs almost the same??!

Try FG.supply.com they can be reasonable.

I have an 09 F1 comp' from FG. Very nice cars! I am looking forward to getting her on the track for the first time in about three weeks!! Very excited about that.

Running costs for a 1/5th scale car I have found to be much lower then the other scales!? Unless you insist on driving into the wall every time out?!

Just remember to turn left when you see the wall... lol
