Ahh, the old remote control car with an aluminum frame. Probably has an electric engine in it too...

I love me a big bowl of brown bings for dinner...pork 'n' bings...or as they're also referred to, bings 'n' wingers.

I wonder what would happen to the RC10's front end if you hit something at the advertised 70mph. :roll:

The "something" that thing hit was an ugly stick!

70+ with those mis-matched wheels would certainly be quite the adventure. And...are those control arms electrical-taped on? :roll:

Is that a B4 nose piece he's using on there? Is it connected to anything?

How did he hit 70mph using a 6 gear and brushless?

Walking out of a grocery store this morning this caught my eye. First time I've seen anyone try to sell one this way. :?

Also looks like it's missing the drive shafts - anyone wants to bet it's a basket case held together with electrical tape and superglue? Maybe the 'work' he did on the Velineon is frying it...it does look slightly melted...

How do you fit that many bolts in a battery? I didn't think they had any...must be some new technology.
And if it's really in God condition, you better buy it, cuz obviously nothing is going to beat it on the track!
