I have to agree with Anthony here. Even if you need to sell your wife to get one, do it cause the 5B is awesome. Top speed is under what most Nitro TC's can attain but the torque and wheel spin the engine produces is scary. It really makes you back up out of the way when you run it. Once I got my 5b, both my Tmaxx and Ofna MBX have been in semi retirement.
I need to get a shot of the 5B and my Ultima

Thanks man. It breaks my heart but time to move on to other projects. I am gathering for my Scorcher-10. It will be a trippy looking car when I am done.

They didn't happen to be of the gigantic variety did they? Look what they did to this chaps leg you cruel bastard!!!

Tad, I support you...... only because I have been thinking the same thing (yes, seriously). I need to generate some funds for a 1:1 project. But, if that wasn't the case, then I would say you are NUTS!

I think i can safely say at lease 75% of us added that one to our watch list lol so at least yoru chances of keeping track of it are better. I know how hard it is to sell that car man. Everyone has that one car they regret sell... like my graphite tub 91 Works yokomo.

I'm not trying to promote the car here. I have not listed the auction or anything because I don't want to make any forum fopaux. But I will say this. Anyone from 10Talk win this car and I will throw in some goodies. If it is ok with the admins, I'll come up with something this weekend and post pics.

Sorry Tad, that was me that linked it here, hopefully I didn't commit the fopaux!
I put it in for the member's interest, I'm not able to bid (too speno for me!), but good luck to you and anyone that is looking to bid.
Happy to edit previous post if any objections are sounded

No problem dude. I got no problem with you linking my auction on this thread. I did not want to do it myself for fear someone would take it as self promotion with out first listing in BST.
And I would have listed in bst had this been a straight up new build. But with the electronics having a special place in rc history, I seriously had no idea what to ask for it. I seriously would love to see it hit a grand and I think it is worth it. But that is me. I will be surprised if it hits $400 but my fingers are crossed.
