LRP have not 'lowered' their quality, the same winning products are still winning, their speedo's motors and lipo's are still some of the best available.
they are branching out into other product ranges and doing some entry level stuff too, but their top level competition gear is still top level.
LRP 8th scale car is the same car as the Z-car but called LRP for european distribution, initially it was Z-cars creation but LRP now have active development with this car.
its not a blip at all, look at the new touch screen pulsar charger, octa-wind x12 motors, stock spec speedo, all new top-level gear.
