Wow that brings back memories. That was my first race buggy and later turned into my first race truck. I remember just making 3 minute race times with 17 turn motors and yellow cells.

The electrics today run as hard and as long as the nitro's,without all the mess and engine tuning not even a break in period !! :BLAA: I have a Gold pan on my kitchen table in the original box i'm bringing back to him tomorrow.. I was gonna trade him for it and make a touring car out of it,and then when I was looking for parts I found a brand new 4wd touring car rolling chassis for $129.00 no way could I convert the gold pan for that little money... :BLAA:

I stopped racing quite a few years ago. I was running mostly nitro off road and 1/8 4wd on road. I once finished 9th in the A main of nitro monster truck ROAR national with a REVO. I still play around with a Losi crawler with a brushless.

I wish I wasn't so busy these days I would like to get back into racing.
