unless you live in an area with lots and lots of tracks, you probably won't find mugen or xray in the LHS's... and that would be sad to not consider the 2 best (well, imho of course lol)

You sound like me, someone who carries huge HUGE stock of spare parts so when you go racing you don't waste time or money having to worry about not having the right part to fix it and get back in the race. That or you just don't race at all and don't have a clue what it's like to be at the track and not have a part!!! If you want to keep $$'s invested low, get what your LHS carries and make good with them for a discount :) Otherwise buy what you want and deal with waits and missing fun or again like I said spend the money and have your own part lot :)
