Picked it up for a sweet, sweet price from a guy in Indiana, drove 220 miles total to get it.

For the low, low price of $200 I got:
HB LSP roller + body, everything has been upgraded to the R version cept the shocks. All of the other parts are there.
Converted to 17mm hubs
1 set, CF on CRT rims, new, never been run.
1 set bowties on 40series rims, 23mm. brand new too.
universal bump box, not sure which model its fairly small, 2 550 motors.
12v gel cell + charger.

And a huge bag of spare parts.

And got some upgrades too, which I'm still determining. Looks like some KHZ parts though.

So, deal or steal? I think it was a steal.

LSP R "half"?

Well, its got all of the R parts, except for the threaded shocks. Other than that everything else is there thats on the R version.

So its pretty much an LSP-R. But its not quite an R.

But for $200 with everything that came who can argue with that? I got a bump box, gel cell, LSP roller 2 sets of good tires, etc...

I say its a damned good deal.

I know its not an R, though it does have alot of the same upgrades, and some KHZ parts here and there. And I've got alot of the original purple aluminum. So I think it was Pro, with upgrades.

But for $200 with everything that came with it I'm not complaining. I'm already using my bump box which is making life easier.

Well, here is an overall picture of what I got, minus the body which is in good shape.

In all honesty, if I could get an LSP in NICE shape for pretty cheap, I would do it. I would bash the hell out of it and race it occasionally for fun. I loved that thing and kind of regret selling it, even though it had some problems from the start. (Rocco do you still have your LSP or just the spares?)

Work something out for me then guys..... as or right now I am looking at a Hyper 7. Hopefully if all goes well I will have a PS3 to make some money with. That will decide a lot of things for me.... Maybe I can pick up both, then look at a full on race rig next year. Not sure.
