Thanks!

oh man,  you just missed a bunch of cars I sold for really cheap.   I might have 1 more.   Let me get back to you on that when I get home.

are you going to be at the race on Saturday?   I can at least bring a car for you to use.

that sounds good,  our next race is on the 17th.  Hopefully you can make it.   Let me know if you can and I'll be sure to have a car for you to use.   I'll see what I can do about a used RTR.

I do have a car that I'd be willing to sale.   I'd probably be looking at about $100 for it.

it's an AM car with an aluminum motor mount,  stock gear diff, Dapmer and top shock, 1 degree alloy knuckles, Carbon t-plate, Kyosho stock motor and bearings.   it has a used sliver Mclaren Mercedes SLR body with it.   

I can bring it on Thursday and you can use it for the night and then decide if it's something you want.  Let me know if you want some pictures of it and I can takes some.

here are the pictures.   I'm looking for $100 for this as an RTR.   The body has seen better days, but the chassis is a good running chassis with some upgrades.

it's a great car to get started with.   you wouldn't need to really do anything to it to get it competitive.  add a skilled driver and you'd be good.   it doesn't have the latest and greatest but it's a good handling car that you can build on as you go.
