Default WiRCRC Rig Build/Giveaway!! ***CHIT CHAT/ PARTS GATHERING***

WiRCRC

First ever online build!

All right guys I KNOW you all got extra parts laying around, I know I do. Some of it I can't give away in the F/S section... but it is good stuff, maybe outdated, but still good! Lets get an ONLINE BUILD going out of our spare parts, and give it away!!! Who is in??

I think we can trade on here to get what we need! Or take donations?
I think this could be fun! Lets see what kind of beast we create...

**THIS WILL BE FOR WiRCRC MEMBERS ONLY, IF YOU WANT IN JOIN!!

WiRCRC members who donate parts to the build or the trade pile are entered in the giveaway.


I will throw in a set of 2.2 wheels & tires, a 2ch Tx/rx, 27t motor, & a couple Nimh stick packs, or small lipo packs, + other stuff depending on the direction this goes...

Who's next? How many F'n stock Ax-10 chassis plates are out there? lol.

Here is a link for the ad I started in the wanted section, feel free to add parts to the trade pile!!

Hmmm......interesting idea. Would this be a raffle or just a random drawing to pick the winner? I think I might have a spare part or two ( ok, a crapload of parts!). Let's see how this plays out.

Are we doing a comp style crawler or more of a trail rig? I've got some WK axles I could donate. Who's going to build this McGyver rig if we gather enough parts?

EDIT* I'm looking for an El Cheapo ESC in good working condition to run a winch, must have reverse (obviously). I can do a trade or $$, LMK.

I guess it will depend on the chassis, But since your going to donate the axles I think we can kinda tell now...

I will volunteer to HELP build & post pics...anyone else??? Maybe we can gather parts @ comps or @ Kaspers???

Huge thanks to TDawg! for stepping up and throwing in the axles!

Sorry dont have a Esc ATM...

Allright since this is taking a Trail rig direction, I am going to start a thread in the wanted section and try to trade items to get stuff we need!

I'm going to post up what I have, and what we need. I encourage everyone who wants in on this to donate parts to the build, or the trade pile...

Lets try to do this build with next to no $! All parts donated or traded for!!

this is a great Idea.

I think we should raffle it off to raise money for the club.

Kasper and I where talking about seeing if Bob would help us sell tickets at like $1 each.

Many not sound like much but when there cheap more people are likely to buy, plus buy more.

I'm open to this, I just don't want anyone to think we are trying to do this for profit... I just had the idea mostly cuz I was bored...& I love gathering parts & dreaming up builds.
