TRF 501X review car
This is the actual car I reviewed a while ago now - I have two 501X's, one which is going as a shelf queen and this one which is for sale here.
This car is an original 501X with the smaller belts and pulleys - still goes well ofcourse and I've raced it recently at Worksop with lipo and 6.5 brushless. The car is currently ready for the trakpower 3200mah saddles I was using - the battery posts are dremelled flat and raised up 1mm. To use 'normal' nimh cells you can just remove the 1mm washers. Comes with rear OPTIMIZED gearbox cover - which does an excellent job of prolonging the diff life. Diffs have ceramic balls. Comes with a one way installed - also a spare diff and a couple of spare pulleys. There's four new centre pulleys in packets and two new belts - with a couple of used belts also. New front shock tower spare. Brand new shell and undertray - the body is painted but never used or mounted A few other misc bits that I could find. Car is shown without hexes (I forgot to put them on) but they're included of course. Same with the rear shock height adjusters - taken off for indoors racing but are included. I won't mess about - the car has seen plenty of use but hasn't really been run last year apart from a couple of meetings. Plenty of scratches on the chassis etc. Certainly not brand new but in decent condition as you can see. Got a few new bits on it, towers, front shocks, bumper, wing mounts etc etc. Freshly rebuilt. 130quid or best offer - fiver for postage. Can take it to WORKSOP this weekend if anyones interested.       Whoop, I should add that car was modified for rear shocks - rear wishbones drilled and other small mods to enable the rear shock setup. Put it back to standard spec when rebuilding tho.

SOLD!
Sorry to everyone that PM'd me, well apart from spiff who was first. Both Durgas are sold Dave! I still have my red anodised 501X but it's getting put on a shelf now. I'll be racing a 'different' car from this weekend onwards - apart from review cars of course, which the 511 might be part of, we'll have to see....

...sorry to go off on a different thread too, but...
Hi Jimmy, Not sure if this helps (or if the Durga cheque has cleared yet) but you say you're in Worksop this weekend - and I live in Derby (about 30 mins away)? Might save you the postage (and me the waiting time!), just an idea... |
