What should i do? - 06.23.2008, 08:58 AM

Hey guys, im in a bit of a Jam here... I had everything lined up for an e-lst when ebay decide to charge me for the sale of a Bike from a month ago...

I have 225 Dollars, what should i blow it on?
i was thinking about picking up a new Rc18T and getting a hopped up Brushed motor for it.. Or Upgrading my raze.. but with what?

Let me know what you think i should get or do.

Rc18t is a fun little truck but for $225 you won't get the truck and go brushless with it. Truck is about $180 and a CC setup for it is about $110. Maybe upgrade the raze or buy some lipos with the $

I went up to a bunch of cars but have shrunk to one of each type and making them really nice... I would ditch the raze and get a nice buggy roller i.e. 8ight, x1cr, mb5 and have a solid platform to build from...

yeah yeah, everyone keeps telling me that the raze isnt a quality car.. but its been perfect... all the things ive broken were my fault..

Diff gears..- not shimmed right and landed @ 1/2 throttle
Rear hub- hit a dumpster..

*edit*
If david and i can strike up a deal it will be a Mbx5t :D

So here's how i read it:
You really want an e-LST.
You dont have the money for one.
You have a certain amount of cash saved.
You can blow that cash on something to slightly satisfy your immediate need, yet you will still be wanting that e-LST. Yet now, you will be 225 further away from purchasing one.
Save for what you want.


Losi 8T 1.0, Savage Flux - XL style, LST XXL, Muggy, 3.3 E-Revo Conversion and sitting outside 425hp, 831 Tq Dodge Ram Turbo Diesel. It SMOKES
