Will I ever go 1:10?

Yeah guys I've been holding back one paint job that i'm especially proud of.
I had a 1:10 that i bought from a guy and i used to bash the living shit out of it. So I said i'd buy something nice for it...
I ended up selling it back to the guy cuz he wanted acheap platform to start modding one of his monsters. So I sold him everything, all my offroad conversion stuff, white touring rims
etc.
But I just couldn't part with the scooby (it was too big anyway 200mm):
The japanese at the side translates litterally to "with utmost effort" or Maximum Attack
So if I ever get a 1:10... THIS will be the runner
This was painted during the summer last year. My 1st and only !:10 paint job

DUDE...That is PIMP, I LOVE IT, but I don't think I'd switch to the Subie now because I got an M3, but that is HOT!

Look at what I missed
Who wouldn't get into 1:10 at $50 RTR.
I was looking to get into RC drifting and saw that the sprint is a good car to drift. Plus you can leave it basically stock. It was right up my alley

Here's a little deal....Not sure what it'll end up going for, but keep an eye on it.

A couple of parts and your good to go. You can also buy a rally upgrade for it.
I have a TC3 and love it for big parking lots. A rally kit might be in its future.

Amazingly, I am in the market for a TC3 to drift. I think I'm serious this time. With Xmods looking iffy this may just be the encouragement I need to step up. I'll add this to the 3 other TC3's I'm watching.
Strange how things happen

Makes you wanna hunt down this bigjunk9 fuck and kick him in the nutz!!!!
I have a 1:10 awd car but I never really play with it. I bought in Kuwait a couple years ago and might one day really take it out and play with it.

And ya know what???? an hour later I lost another auction. I knew I should have put in $100 as my maximum bid, but my pockets were controlling my fingers. I froze
. I missed out on a SWEET deal.
I'm still hunting tho. I placed an early bid on another chassis.

Stick in there. You'll get one.
Here's my TC3.
It's still the same, except I have gold knock offs on it instead.

THat's a nice paint job. Good luck in finding a chassis for it.
SG219 - I think you accidentally posted the negative. Isn't it supposed to be green with black stripes???

Nice the gold rims will go nice with your lid to.
If you get the second one your still going to need a motor unless you already got one that fireball is crap really its just as bad as a stinger.
If you have enough and want real speed get a sphere/neo 3 or 4 star brushless combo system.

This will be a drifter, so I don't need any high speed motors. Just lotsa torque. I gotta call up my friend and see if he has any 'lectrics to sell me. It may save me some money
I'm gunna buy an '04 scooby lid to floss and use the one above to practice etc. I have the '04 painted in my head already
Gunna get some ABS tyres, and pinions off the bay and some brand new shoes from tower.
EDIT: Getting the shoes from the bay also:
Now I need an electronics package
