Thanks for the warm welcome. And a little advice needed.

Hi all
Thanks for the warm welcome on Fri 14th. I was the tall bald bloke that didn't have a clue :-)

Opened my eyes to what the sport is all about...... Race fast and have fun!!

Anyway what value would you put on these 2 cars? Just thinking if my daughter did take the sport up she would have a car that only needed a controller and I would be set up from the word go.

Whilst I know the cars are quality, Im not sure about the quality/value of the electrics and controller.
They could be top class.... or not.
Thoughts please on how suitable they would be and their value!

The b5m as a roller( no electrics) prob looking at £150, the lrp stuff is top notch, the motor is £72 new, ESC £100, savox servos are spot on too. The older car still has decent speed passion gear in it, so I guess he'd want near £300 for both ( depends on his reserve) . Great starting kits tho by the looks of em. Good luck in the auction.

Just check prices on MB models website. Generally Cheapest place to get spares.http://www.rccarshop.co.uk/index.php/

For tyres maybe lol, but wishbones and ESC's or have you expanded? Freeman models........has a nice ring to it.

I got in touch with the seller and his reserve was £600 for both cars. Out of my league for a 1st time purchase. So ill keep looking and learning.
I realise if I like the hobby I'll need to spend decent cash but the Yorkshire man in me keeps trying to resist!!

Hi Davo
do you mean this weekend coming (I thought everyone was away at some race?)
And more importantly how much would you need to spend to turn a roller into a decent car.
what recommendations would people give for decent, reliable electrics.

I think I may be liking the look of a wheel/trigger transmitter.

Cheers
