Brand new in Box Schumacher Rascal for sale/trade - 03-18-2007, 01:20 AM

I have a brand new rtr silver schumacher rascal.

It has NEVER seen a drop of fuel. I put the antenna on, put some zips on the head, put 4 lithium cells in the reciever pack, and put 8 rechargeables in the transmitter. I turned the truck on, checked the brake, throttle(perfect, no adjustment needed). Then I simply trimmed the steering to make that perfect.

It is basically ready to put gas in for the first time and break in. I just paid $300 + tax.

I would trade for an rtr gas plane, or you need to give me something in really good shape, I don't like working on stuff.

The truck sits ontop of its original box, never put the decals on, instructions included, it even has every part needed to take it apart and put it together again sealed in the factory bag, and the glow starter that comes with it is in the original bag.

Please goto
google.com, click on video, then search "schumacher rascal". These things are acually super freakin cool. My friend has one and I seen it do things that would destroy most other cars. Its a real tough little bad boy, only 1/16 scale that comes with a .18 racing motor stock! If you check those video's on google. you will see one that a person through the tt .21 bb on there with the tuned pipe, possibilities are endless. Here are some of the aftermarket parts that I am going to buy on monday if nobody wants it. I think I will deck her out,

7.2 flat pack: $8
Complete set of 4 alloy arms: $49.99
4 x 35mm Purple Titanium turnbuckles: $19.98

I have a CEN CT-5 on the way that would be NIB. They go for about 370 new. Had my eye on a Rascal though if you are interested.

wow, funny as heck, it was so nice today. I cancelled my add on rcuniverse, just too many scammers. Then I decided to break it in. Wow, great break in session. It took a little over 3 hours, I had the guy from the hobbie shop oversee everything, he is my friend for a while now. Anyways, I am on tank # 6 ran.

This thing is bad as hell!

I love the fact that it is rear exhaust. You could litterly burn down the sidwalk, hit the brakes, do a 180, and use that as a raceway. If you have the skill this is surely the vehicle for you.

Well, I would love to make a local trade, surely not afraid to hand this to anyone! Starts first pull, and runs till the tank smokes. Only tightened highspeed from 1/16th on tank 4 to 1/8th tight last tank. On highspeed, rest of vehicle is perfect, it is still very very rich, the motor has never died out.

There is a lot of trim and room to work with right on the transmitter. This truck is set up right.


Ok, I am still interested in making a trade. Here is the deal. I need to have an RTR setup for my rtr setup.

I will trade for just about anything, I am actually looking for a kicken gold figarro bracelt to mactch my necklace, to just about anything.

Understand you are getting a rascal that, well, I will start it for you and show you what the little guy can do. I will actually race most trucks under certain circumstances.

This vehicle is really a must drive. After 1 tank, you will not even think of it as 1/16th scale,until you put it on your shelf and see the size.

Ohh yea, I want to describe the way it sounds as a small harley if anybody was wondering. It does have an odd looking rear exhaust, but all it did was give it good performance, cool sound, and kept it clean.

If nobody does want to trade, or if somebody is disappointed that the car was drivin 6 tanks and they want a new one, let me tell you, highly suggested, after 25 year of the hobby(before that I was on radio shack,lol), I mean just so many cars drivin, everything, since the early 80's. This is by far the most suprised I have ever been. What a cool little buggy.

10/10 rating, and I would only give the fusion an 8, and the manace an 8, the gtr menace a 9 (have all 3),

Ok,
Please, send any offer idea to rickwinkler31@aol.com

I will surely give this to you in brand new looking condition, 6 tanks on her, full cells everyware + extra lithium for the reciever.

Hurry, I will drive it as much as possible weather permitting. I get home at 6 pm, if you don't want me to drive it anymore then email offers.

Thanks,

Rick
