The "team built" Gt you mentioned in your thread title is referring to the completely factory built rolling chassis that is no longer being manufactured. Some are still to be found in various places such as ebay, etc. From now on AE is only going to produce the RTR and the team and factory team kits. The team built is a great race truck to get you going quickly with the addition of your choice of engine/radio combo. If you find a new one in the box, it will contain all the other items you'll need like the pipe,header, linkage, air filter, clutch/clutch bell, etc. However, the team built and the team kit DO NOT come with titanium turnbuckles. The factory team kit does. Don't let that stop you from a good deal, but just remember that will add another 25-30 clams if purchased new. The truck will function fine without the ti turnbuckles, but they are well worth the cost and will allow you to drive much more aggressively without the worry of bending those flimsy stockers. If you know for certain your gonna race and the funds are available, go with the Factory Team because it's got all the goodies from the factory. Part #'s are as follows.....7055 RTR......7060 Factory Team/non pull......7061 Factory Team/pull start.......7068 Team Truck/non pull..........7065 Team Truck/pull start. I have seen some team built trucks still in stock at one of our local HobbyTown USA stores as recently as a few months ago, so you may try them out for size. Good luck:thumbsup:
