NEED 1/18 scale off road - 01-10-2006, 03:58 PM

Some of you met my little bro, he came to the track with me last weekend. He wants to get into racing and wants to start with a 1/18 and gradually work his way up to a bigger ride over a couple years.

He has saved up his money for awhile and has $90 to spend on a 1/18 scale car. He wants to buy one that is RTR including batt/charger and everything needed to get going. It can be stock or have hopups but it needs everything included as all he has is $90 to spend total.


LMK if anyone here has a mini-t or a 18t they want to get rid of.

You could also find him a Pede for good and cheap on fleabay or on boards. 18th scales can be a pain to deal with at times because of all the tiny parts.
