> eric did u look and see what u got?
Just picked up everything from my moms house. Looks like I have just about a complete RS4 already assembled. I have to toss it all together and put a motor on it. But it should be good to go.
Also working on picking up a OFNA Ultra LX comp buggy to play around with in the dirt.

Eric if you need anything you can just have it. my parts pile is like your honda parts pile 🙂
And theres a couple different adapter plates available, but the one i got was off a friends run over savage (sister ran it over with her dirtbike… ) I took the engine mount motor/trans and servo. all bolt up. for the exception of drilling an extra hole here or there. i might make my own chassis plate…
When i dig it out, ill take some pics. Also the 2speed transmission is different then the regular hpi on road 2speed, diferent mount holes. some fabbing required 🙂

I like S&H because they sell used shit also, so you can get a decent deal.

Swung by S&H today but a little later then expected. They didn’t have many used cars there thats really worth picking up.
Picked up a new motor for my mini-t. I guess now they hold electric dirt races in the back if anyones interested.
