Re: I really am having not much luck with ebay.

I thought the same. I paid via paypal and they verified this. Item took a long time to turn up. When it did they sent the wrong items. I complained and they ignored. I then put in a paypal claim. They eventually got in contact and told me to send it back. I did and they did not refund me. So again ...

Re: Traxxas Slash or Losi Mini Crawler....which would you keep?

Looking at the cars you already have in your stable, I'd keep the crawler. It looks like you have plenty of stuff that will do the same as the slash so you probably won't miss it too fast. yeah....but it is big, and beggin for a brushless setup.....I'd love for it to do 50mph down the street....in ...

Re: 2009 Vintage Off Road Nationals !!!! -- Tentatively Schedule

what's wrong with glitching? you guys are no fun. :wink: fm and pcm radios were around pre-94, so you couldn't say am only . if this class would happen, as i stated earlier, i wouldn't be too worried about using a new style radio. just so guys wouldn't have to carry an extra radio. but, that being ...

Re: 2009 Vintage Off Road Nationals !!!! -- Tentatively Schedule

I say any nicad battery, and brushed motors.

If you really want vintage maybe enforce old AM radios so people can have radio glitches as well to complain about.....

Re: Slash is kinda big

The Slash will be more user friendly and durable than a Mini T. My son has taken his full speed into a brick wall more than once already. Scratched up the body a bit. I am tempted to put the speedo into Trainer mode for him, but I know he will be screaming about why his truck is so slow. Your son h...

I think you just need to have a 18-20yr old judge to determine Vintage. If he does not recognize it, you can run it :mrgreen:

Re: Traxxas Slash or Losi Mini Crawler....which would you keep?

The answer is you keep which ever truck fits in your desk drawer. :mrgreen: Close the office door with a post it note saying "Conference call, do not disturb". That should keep her out while your playing with them! :twisted: You have not seen my office :lol: I'll take a couple photos late...
