Post up your r/c toys

Okay, this a Traxxas rustler I bought about a year ago.

Its two wheel drive, positive traction.

Custom, functional dual exhaust. Loud as hell and gives me more low end torque.

Right now I got it on lowering springs for street use with street tires. I do have a 2 1/2 inch lift springs and baja tires for baseball fields or sand/grass.

Nitro Powered rated at 50+ MPH

1/4 mile radio function.

Cost=$350 approx.

Future plans: I want to add a LED Baja light stack on my bumper bar and roof.

Enjoy!

^ That's bodies... not the actual cars.

Here's my 02/03 HPI Rush 2WD

- Everything is carbon fiber or aluminum... not much plastic left
- Digital FM radio
- High torque, metal gear steering servo
- Ball bearing differ
- 13T steel pinion
- O.S. Engines .15 CV
- Running 33% Traxxas fuel
- Tunable pipe

- Cost: Too much... embarassing how much I dropped on this hobby back in the day. Currently looking to sell... needs fuel lines and tank to run. Could use an engine rebuild or new engine.

How much damage would it do to the wallet to pry that puppy from your clutches? (out of curiosity of course)

Absolutley nothing will fit. A few parts transfer over to the HPI Nitro MT AWD truck but that's about it.

Well, I've got about $1200 into it... needs a new fuel tank, fuel lines, pinion gear bearings, cylinder sleeve, piston. I'd let it go for $700 as is, $850 if I fixed everything first I think... I dunno. I'm flexible.
