Tell me about it. Got Laid off notice in fall of 2004, took an early retirement instead to keep some benefits. Good idea because I'm still looking for the next job, can only find part-time work just to keep afloat.

On another note. I will request the day off just to be with the crawlers and show you that an old dog can learn new tricks. Dig it!

Addicted, if you need an esc or motor for the comp let me know... they arent mamba's but I have an xl5, tazer, duratrax something and a couple more in the box. I also have that extra 55t on the way.

I actually had to sell off my 1:1 project at a pretty substantial loss to be able to keep going with the RC otherwise I would be cut off.

Yea I have an esc and motor handy (thanks Bubba) It's the driveshafts and alum outputs I still need to complete the crawler. If my truggy sells, I'll be there If not well, who knows. I know I want to go lol. My biggest problem Is dumping this truggy. It's no piece by anymeans but It looks like the truggy market is dyeing

Thanks man for the offer
I actually have a brand new trans now. I would like to get some stampede shafts and sttel outputs so I can make sure everything works before I show up lol. I built a new crawler outta my junk I had so it has zero run time and tweaking on it yet. I need to get it all together so I can even see if it works first lol. I'm gonna keep dropping the price on my stuff till it sells. I'll just cut my losses and run so I can get this thing ready.

That sucks!

I'm gonna be the Lone Super.........

Almost makes me want to sell mine to fund a 2.2 Berg build, but I sure like the capability of the Super Rig, it's just cool as hell to have dual ESC's and dual steering, but it's not much fun running by yourself!
