I decided that I have too many RC cars, and the process of selling them is a pain in the butt. I want to help a KID that may not have the means to get into the hobby. I got my first RC car ( Tamiya Fox ) in 1987 or thereabouts. I was hooked. Here I am 42 years old and I'm still hooked. Long story short, this hobby is so wonderful, and I want to give a KID a break, and help them get started. I've assembled a monster truck, Traxxas Stampede VXL, a controller, two sets of batteries, a charger, spare parts, and tools. Everything you need to get out there and play. Good old fashioned play! The truck has an upgraded Savox servo, RPM parts front and rear, MIP metal rear driveshafts, and aluminum front under chassis protector. It's solid and built to hold up. Lipo battery, and the included Nimh 8.4v battery. A nice charger with Lipo balancing adapter, 2.4ghz controller, body, and some spare parts and tools.

I will box up and ship to one lucky KID, totally free of charge. My gift to a KID that wants a Truck so bad, but just can't seem to get one.

Please no adults, you have the means to get into the hobby if you want. This is for a KID.

PM me why you haven't been able to get a RC truck. Or why you want one so much.

On Sunday night I'll pick one KID that moved me and my wife the most, and I'll ship it to you.

Next Thanksgiving we will do it again.

Be thankful for what you have.

Cheers,
Trout

Thanks, but honestly I don't want thanks, I want to help out a Kid that wants to play, but can't.

This is exactly why I started doing it on a local level a couple years ago. It has spread and there are many great members here who have helped send trucks to kids all over the state's that otherwise not be able to rc. It's all for the kids.

keep it up sir, and advance congratulations to the lucky kid.

Sorry to do this again, but mad props to you for doing this. The world needs more people like this who look out for complete strangers. All, take note of this and follow this example. Sorry for sounding like a cheeseball.

Ladies and Gentlemen,
To my amazement, I haven't had one single request for my RC truck package. So I'm asking any of you if you know of a kid that could use a RC and benefit from it. Someone you see hanging around the track or someone that is less fortunate.
PM me and we'll see what happens.
Thanks,
Trout

Hey I'm a 13 year old and i have been doing a lot of research about RC cars and i would like to get into it but i keep seeing that all the good cars that aren't just toys are so expensive, so when i saw this i was very excited.

Racing2learn is a non profit, that uses RCcars and videos to help kids get into the hobby and uses RC cars and trucks to teach kids problem solving and math and to use their brains for more than computer games. I will be shipping my truck to them.
Thanks,
Trout
