That thing looks cool.
You were saying that Traxxas is not making 1/5 scale to compete with HPI.. I think it's because they are too concentrated on the next best thing for them (At the moment is the Sort course trucks).. I think a 1/5 might be too much of an undertaking and HPI has too much of a following for the Baja..

I would like it Killer but I can imagine that there would be a pretty hefty price tag attached.

Cool old Monster Buggy . That would make a nice Sprint car for a dirt oval.

The front tires are what we all need for 2wd. I don't understand why more don't offer a ribbed tire...

if you can find them, traxxas sold a set of hardened shock shafts for these. the rears especially need them. great old buggy you have there. just don't go crazy jumping and it'll last a long while

They are. You need the right person. eBay is the best to get to those people. I still don't think they go for much. May be best to keep them and use them once in a while. Better then giving them away.

well, the move right now is to sell them.

so once I get back home they will be

"on the e-bay" site.

HPI 5B is next on the to do list
big gas is just too much fun.

Hey Texas Wheelman, any tips on the MB? I just picked one up on ebay. I can't wait to get it, but since parts are scarce, I'd want pick any spares that are necessary. Thanks.
