For those of you who are looking for a way to track the speed of your RC, I found this on e-bay earlier and couldn't pass it up. I'll let you know how it works.
 
That looks tight. Ok dude now you need to attach a cell phone cord to it and stand out on the street in some undercover cop lookin clothes and whenever a hot lookin chick comes down the street point it at her and if she's speedin or not u should point for her to pull over than grab her #. LOL ok that's a bit extreme but ya never know it might work.
 
I dont know much about radar guns, but I looked for some a month or so ago. I was able to find a lot for less than 100. You may want to look around a bit more unless that is a really good one for the price.

That would end with my butt in stir, again, and missing a vital part of my anatomy at the hands of my gf.
 
Haha Wasteland I hope when you say you could pull it off you are talking about what newnitrofan said and not what El said his gf would do jk lol.
 
I've seen those on eBay as well, but noticed a problem with them.

They only work side on, and by that I mean you sit still with the gun in hand and the truck/car flys by. The gun is inaccurate if gun and car isn't perpendicular with one another, a tilt in to many degrees throws it off. Most of them do not work at all when shotting the target as it comes toward you. Again the target must be perpendicular with the target.

That's nothing to bad, but just thought I'd throw in my two cents about these baseball radar guns.

Thanks for the worried mother hen advise. If it works great. If it doesn't, well I need a few more paperweights.
 
Bought as expensive as the 21 conversion I bought for my t-maxx then less than a week after slapping it on it was totally FUBAR'd.
