It's marked for 25 bucks but the register said 15, so I paid 15 bucks!
Pics:

30 minute assembly time my ass! I put this thing together in 20 minutes flat. The one thing that pissed me off was that the holes for the decks in the chassis weren't threaded, so that required dome cranking to get in (I used stock screws). Other than that, as long as you can get it for 15 bucks, I'd say it's well worth it just for the decks. The chassis looks cool but scratches easily, making it pure crap for driving.

i think that's a good deal even at $25 considering what cf decks cost now. and you get a cool clear chassis too

The chassis is cool, but it scratches so easily I'm reluctent to race with it. The decks are deinitely worth the 15 bucks. The CF also appears to be of a very high quality.

From RadioShack??? Could it be we are seeing the first of HPI's influence in the states?

Does that answer the question

(pic taken by Skklown on MRCC) ? I think this could be the work of Hpi.

60-8537 I believe. My reciept says the stock number's 6008537, and since I'm betting that the dash can't be used in the computer and RS upgrades have the habit of starting 60-, I think that's it.

I thought it wasn't real CF... Hrmmmm if it's real, well this is cool.

It is real for sure.

I thought it was fake as well. Hell, I just found out about it today. Guess I'll have to go to RS and check it out.

Hmm...Just read up on this thread, but are they still around? Does the radio shacks down there still have em?

I know that they are not here in Canada...could someone let me know please, thanks!

yeah, good deal. CF IS real.

not much can be seen, but it is a clear chassis and CF decks from RS.

Posted: **Fri Dec 30, 2005 11:12 am**

I think my RS still has one.

Posted: **Fri Dec 30, 2005 12:22 pm**

Really how much are they? I'd really want one man!

Are they handy for your car?

Posted: **Fri Dec 30, 2005 3:21 pm**

They should be 15 dollars. I think the kit is pretty nice, but I think its more for looks than for performance since I barely noticed a difference with the decks on.
BTW, they are listed on the RS site: http://www.radioshack.com/product/index ... age=search
