The "What did you buy today?" thread...

Thanks, I’ve had it over 4 years now and just been bored with it but, It is lowered a little, full bmr suspension in the back, relocated control arms, double adjustable pan hard bar. Tuned by Lund.

I test drove one about that year. It had the Ford Racing catback on it that sounded pretty snarly. The last one I had was a '95 5.0.

I thought when it came to hooks and lines that all fish are evasive.

In reality, not sure about other states but Idaho and Oregon do this to get more of our money.
My question is, what's that money used for? Affordable housing for the homeless fish?

The Sledge.

Positive camber and negative toe and the truck's handling reflects it.
1 complete set of Traxxas adjustable links.
TRX9549X
TRX9548X
TRX9547X
For this truck having all the wheels pointing in the right direction will be a new experience. All I need now is a way of keeping the wing from getting jacked.

I’ve had a lot of them from 85 and up, and several I wish I would have kept and one of em was a white 95 GT that I sold after I got a terminator. The 95 was simple and super clean with a lot of suspension work, exhaust, 3:73 gear, very fun car to drive. Guy totaled about a month after I sold it.

They tired of swimming in a body of water. They want out.

55 bucks off rc swap and shop bc. It's actually in Alberta though so the shipping was a bit more but I'm excited about it. I've wanted a sc truck for awhile and when I saw this on as a roller I jumped on it. It has the servo but that's it for electronics but I have so.e to choose from so I'm good. The only thing I have to figure out is if I use my brushless set up or the arrma mega 12t brushed motor and esc ? Oh and he suggested I get a new spur gear too so I've got a spur and pinion set coming. It'll basically be rtr when it gets here and I put about half hr to an hr work into it . Excited

Picked this brushless Rustler up from some dude for 100 bucks... Dude didn't have batteries for the controller or car. Luckily I brought mine from the other car... It seemed to run fine on the 2s lipo.... Well guess what? This noob picked up a 3s lipo and stripped the spur gear and burned up the clutch a bit. I think the mesh was a little too tight and I didn't know it was a thing... Ordered a new magnum tranny. Might re consider the 3s thing.... Lol

Not a bad score. Make sure your slipper is tight on the new tranny

100 bucks for a stock ish VXL rusty. Not that bad
Wish I can find deals like that around me

Yeah exactly. I am not 100% sure on how beat up it was but the guy claims his kid ran it a few times, didnt have batteries to test it. He was kinda rude and not that friendly to deal with lol. I brought a battery to test for remote and the car seemed to run fine. But I tested with my 2S lipo battery. The guy had a few other cars. He showed me his rack he had that he said was full of cars but his boys don't play with them anymore so he was getting rid of them. He had a Stampede with Max D body on it for 150.

I have been looking around, and its hit or miss, just luck of the draw.

I wish I didnt mess up the spur gear but eh... Getting the fancy Transmission upgrade so hopefully that helps...

@WickedFog I love these markers. I got the 1mm. After taking days to chrome a light bucket I discovered the 4mm tip.

I bought my non-resident fishing license for Oregon for $160 but that includes a two pole permit and a evasive species permit.

My LHS was showing off these little dusters. They can be recharged like a cell phone does. Been looking for something like this and today I decided to pick one up. I even made a black grip with some matte vinyl. I'm gonna put some snap on stickers on it when they come in the mail.

I should get one of those
That would be helpful when coming in from a bash or just cleaning off my car from my race.

 

[Lucifur10]

Picked this up. I want to get back into racing. The used rc10sc "rs" is hard to find parts for.
