I need to replace my pull starter in my RC10GT and get it back up and running. What I really need to do is sell it and then grab a 8th scale buggy

I got out of RC cars when I got into planes, then got out of planes when I got into helis. Then got out of it entirely because the heli was too much of a PITA to keep running because the slightly rough landing always broke something. I think I need to take one step back and get another plane.

You’d beat me, mine is super old, .15 engine, 1speed tranny unless its fucked up and I don’t know lol, and besides that I need 2 dogbones, it is only RWD right now, and the tires are kinda shot… wow i have alot of excuses, i bought it used, i just plan to drive it in the snow beat the shit out of it lol I would deffinitely run it against you though, Idk where, a parking lot would work.

**EDIT: If anyone has any HPI RS4 MT(mt= monster truck) parts, let me know, roller, broken, working, if you want to sell it let me know 🙂**

I have some sort of HPI 4wd truck thing…  
I should probably clean it up and get it running.

Maybe I can get cheap engines from a friend…  
He’s actually sponsored by some buggy maker.

I think I might still have an old LOSI stadium truck chassis somewhere…I should bust that out. The motor and gears all worked last time I ran it. Probably would need all new electronics though.

I have a electric LOSI stadium truck that is probably over 15 years old, still is complete and works. It would be cool if there was a place around to bust them out. I would buy anything if there was a cool place to race/play around near Buffalo.

They race them in the southtowns.  
Glenwood RC or something.

FYI: I think kids today are spoiled. I remember barely finishing 4 minute races with my batteries.  
Now they have 20 minute races w/o swapping packs.
