Several gold pans from 'A' to 'C'. Three VTG worlds - one mint, never run. Several composite, two of the carbon fiber tubs. 6 or 8 new gen Associated including three Worlds, the others are Team cars. 4 pan cars, 3 trucks.

Plus several other non-Associated buggies, trucks It's an addiction

Edit: I even have my 'A' stamp from when I was a kid - still has dirt in it from my yard in CA.

I had a traxxas rustler that I ported/polished the sleeve & crank on. It would flip over on its back even at full speed.

Haha looks like we started an rc thread, all I have left are two rc8 buggy rolling chassis and one of the first kyosho st-r kits that came from japan. I've been thinking about getting a couple of cars again to play with my daughter but I don't even know what to look at anymore. I was pretty suprised a few years ago to see Traxxas cars in bestbuy.
I thought it was a good idea to take a revo stick an sh.28 in it(biggest motor available in a .21 case at the time) with a 22 tooth clutch bell and 36 tooth spur run a traditional 1/8th one piece tuned pipe, and race the thing. It was always in the b-main at best anything over local.

Asso Team cars are a very good value, IMO.

Having said that, I bought a used HPI Blitz roller with radio (someone's racer) off eBay for $100. Added an el cheapo 6T brushless combo (ezrun) for $80. A couple 5000mah packs for $40.

It is ridiculously fast and I have beat the snot out of it for 5 years now. With your expertise you could build a cheap basher that really performs then get that girl to the track!

Sincere apologies VDF!

Back on topic - where are the new episodes, I've worn season one out

I jumped mine when it was stock save for the 'mid perch' change. I had it about 2ft off the ground. Nothing crazy but I was being careful.

OK So if I get some shocks and springs I should be able to go faster over the bumps and if I get a little air/get light I should be safe?
