He says its a roller.

And look at the holes!

That would be a holey roller?

Boom tish!

Nah, without wheels & tires, it's more of a slider than a roller.

Needed to borrow "The Penguins" ruler to lay out lines before drilling those.

another guy who doesn't understand what 'rolls' means . My god...how hard is it to understand that if it doesn't 'roll' its not a 'roller'.

Here too usually. If it is indeed a TMaxx, and the motor and trans are in workable condition, I could probly buy it, spend a little time cleaning it up, and get at least $150 for it...assuming it's not totally trashed. Say what you want about them, they do sell well...I've rebuilt several of them, and there's always some profit there for my time. A buck is a buck, when bills come due...

I agree. I wasn't hating, just making an observation. Traxxas gets on my nerves sometimes with the things they do, but they're still a good gateway drug to get other people addicted to the hobby. They make some super fun cars though. Tough as nails too. There is a huge Slash oval scene around here at 2 different tracks. Especially the one right here in town. I heard they had over 150 entries one night this year. I haven't been over to that one since it opened. I've just been kinda doing other things. I raced at the one in Rockport, which is about 30 min from here quite often. They have a big following too. We had H mains on some nights. They're a blast to race. This one's my racer. I'm getting ready to rebuild the whole thing. It's been collecting dust for the past year or so.

1984, Ghostbusters: Peter: "It just seems a little pricey for a unique fixer-upper opportunity, that's all."

Is it truly a roller without wheels and tires? He also neglected to mention one large and complicated part of the car that has gone missing from the back. It should have gears inside a case.

This thread could double in the lightweight chassis thread as well.

"hull broke by angry ex." At least he's honest.

[Lowgear]

Only ran a few hundred times. Check out that tuned exhaust.
