yeah you're telling me. Before I started taking it apart, I had maybe 1300+ into it with the engine, controller, and other ----. Well now it's time to put it back together and hopefully find a buyer. :-\

1300$$ ...Only ??? LMAO

Last year I decided to get back into R/C racing since I didnt want to modify my new Subaru, I bought an electric TC3 and all the Racing goodies...

Im well over 3k$ large after the boxes of 100$ a set tires, and multiple 50$ 1.71V packs. Its fast as hell though I dont think Ill be racing much this next season

yeah compared to yours only 1300, but this was for just a basic setup, not racing more of just for show. In actuallity it was more of 1500+ on just this one r/c.

Oh yeah gas ownz electric. :P

Electric is too damn expensive, i started with electric, then went into gas, and now I only have one electric and like 9 gas r/c's.

In the hobby alone I have spent ----, I don't even wanna start calculating how much I have into the hobby :-\ And this isn't even including all the r/c's I've owned

sry i cant get on every hour ;)

an xmod is an extremely modable rc car. search google for xmods and you will know all ;) They are about 6" long 2" wide i think. you can make it AWD, FWD or RWD.

so far im going to make it up to 6 cell capable. you will be able to remove certian cells so you can surprise your friends ;) Ordered steel cup joints for the back wheels, cause my test car broke the plastic ones... =D also im getting some bearings in. talked to atomic mods, and im having one of their motors brought into the mix. im still trying to secure a CRX body that will fit it.

aren't the xmods a 1:28 scale car? Good luck finding a body that fits, the only crx model I know of that come close is a 1:24 scale :-\

Yes, your right, but I have heard of people successfully adapting a 1:24 scale model to the xmod chassis. Not real sure what went into doing it though. You might find some helpful info here http://www.microrccenter.com/forum/i...p?showforum=27
