There just so happens to be a MBX-5 Prospec on the way to my house. Now how to finagle a a new engine....
 
what do you have to trade, just so happens I have a new ws7II and a CMB Raptor .21 The raptor is like new with only about a quart run through it and it runs perfect, and fast. The Raptor also has a cmb ushaped manifold and 7302 pipe in new condition. The ws7II comes with a used 063 RB one piece pipe. Let me know if you have any intrest and we could work out a deal. Chas.
 
Congrats on the new buggy. I just got a Kyosho Inferno MP7.5 :D Only 3 tanks through it so far.
 
I went back and forth betweem the Prosec, and the 777 Special 1, and decided on the Prospec because I know two people with MBX-5's that I could bum parts off of to get threw race day if I had to.

hudler, Thanks for the offer, but I don't have anything I want to get rid of at the moment that has any value. I'll be puttting my VZB off the Lightning on the Prosec, and once the front upper A-arm is off back order I'll sell it as a rolling chasis with several extra parts to get a new engine. That's the plan anyway.
 
Early VZB (non V-Spec)

Hope the V-Spec will come after selling the Lightning.
 
Received my new buggy on the 20th. Built the diffs, and put them in there cases with drive shafts the same day. Took it easy yesterday. Only built the shocks, and took everthing I would need off of the Lightning. Today will be a good day. No work tomarrow, and I plan to build the rest tonight, except maybe the tires, and we'll see about painting the body. Might not get to those.
 
Have fun with it, I can't wait until i get my Mp777 and putting that together, just take ur time at it and it will be beautiful!

Also personally I would go for the V-SPEC Engine, heard its one of the best engines out there!
 
Well, it was a long night, and it is a rolling chasis, - the radio tray, and tires. Back to work. I might even drive it today, but more than likeley it won't be untill next Wed.
 
Drove it last night! Awesome! Flies 1000 times better than the lightning.
