don't waste your money man, i bought a phat ass traxxas 4 tec a couple years ago, it was bad as hell, i had a pearl white dc5 body with itr decals, white itr style rims, it was nice as hell, but every time you take them out, they get filthy and you have to spend like an hour cleaning it and they get old after a while, i ended up selling mine after a few months, i wish i had kept it just to look at though, mini itr was hotness :-\

robbieshonda has one for sale, I think he wants like $200 for it, i was thinkin about getting it. I like toys like that. although, it is one of those things that are cool for a few months, then they get old and stupid and you dont want to drive them anymore.


anyone have any good sites/forums for parts and all that good cool jazzy ----.

you can find them used all the time on the rc forums for dirt cheap. i picked mine up for 175 shippped with a nice aftermarket remote, box of spare parts, spare set of rims/tires, electric start w/battery, etc. this was teh 2.5 4 tec, rated at 60+ out of the box :-* i wish i had my digi cam back then or i would have some fat video/pics of it.
