Total conversion to a "Baja Rey Kit"

$512.89 vs $449 RTR

with throw out electronics.

I wish companies (company!) offered more kits. Its a shame the Rock Rey did so poorly, its a quality build, one of the better I've built (out of 60+ kits)

Its not like they blister pack display everything like tamiya did in the 80s. Kits should cost LESS.

I dont understand it... :roll: /rant over

hope this helps someone... I'm waiting for a chassis/roller or used one.

To be fair, the cost of electronics have to be taken into consideration because they could easily push that $512.89 into the same price range as a Traxxas UDR.


But overall I still completely agree with what you're getting at, and its good to have that list of parts in one place. "thumbsup"
