So i just set up a deal for a rc10gt but i was told it is a rc10gt2 with a traxxas 2.5 that has a pull start . The guy wanted 50.00 so yeah i was kinda worried how the motor was. I was told he wanted out of the hobby and he is going to electrics. He is going to throw in a traxxas remote for 25.00 more. I said ok but lets get this thing to fire. I have fuel and glow plugs and a starter for it so i said i can get it going. He needs a few hours i guess to get it to a rtr for me so i said ok i am free. I am not holding my breath but my plan is to make sure it stats and see i live on the east coast and we got some snow and all the parking lots are bad. i picked a spot that has a over hand and my idea is to get it to idle for a few seconds and do a few 20-30 foot speed passes up the side walk. I picked a local kmart and you know no one shops at them no more lol. I hope he does not think he can get over on me but for 75.00 it is worth a shot imo. I was told it has a new piston and it ran good but to me that all means nothing. He did say the one way bearing might need a cleaning , which a little wipe down or spray could be in order but even a 15.00 bearing imo i am ok with that. So i will post back maybe i will get a rc10gt/traxxas hybrid. That could work out well.
