Thanks Steve for that!
Well, overall, my first impression is that the SIGMA is a XXXS copy. Going with a single belt drive. It will be interesting, now that we have a US distributor, to see how the car performs.
In the pics I have seen, the car seems to have a similar chassis layout to the XXXS and thus, Is it really a Kawada? many people felt the same way about Acadamy when they released the STR-4, which had an opposite chassis configuration to that of the TC3. I see many manufactures making the transition into the Shaft drive or Single belt layout.
I realize the TC3 shaft drive car is nothing new, with Tamiya and Tenth Tech making shaft drive vehiles a long time ago, but now we see HPI jumping into a shaft car. The mid motor position like that of the Schumacher and other cars.
Oh well, I think its great. I would love to see the SIGMA make a competive move in the touring car field. The SV10 was competitive back in its time, I know i still like mine!
Hey Steve, can I do the Review of it once you at RCCA get the car?

Yes, you do finally have a US distributor. Next order will be in the end of next week and option parts are in it. Alcyon SP kits will be in also.
RCCA, we will be happy to supply a Sigma for review, just let us know if you want one. Only stipulation is that some lucky reader gets it afterwards , sound fair enough ?
