You really don't need anything else. It has so many spare parts.

Remebering that I am new to this...as far as Electronics I would need a Stearing Servo, Throtle Server, Receiver (That will work with my nice Airtronics M8 with Spektrum module ), and Receiver battery pack. Anything else? Would I need the linkages for the Servos?

Then a .21 Buggy engine and pipe.

And Oils.

Good Point!!! Guess spinning it by hand would be a little tough.

Anyone have an extra Starter Box sitting around not starting anything?

I can hook you up with some nice airtronics servos. I'll bring them and you can check them out. I will give you the horns too since I use different servos now. I am pretty sure I got aluminum ones...

Sorry I completely flaked not realizing it was you when I posted. Been super busy at work and was rushing! I'll hook you up!

Too bad I didn't know earlier. I sold an jpx21 engine and jammin jp1 pipe...

Don't forget a charger for the receiver pack and a glow plug ignitor.

Nothing official has been announced about practice nights. We'll bring it up this weekend in the pits and see what the options are.

I suspect that Chuck and Doug would like to keep practice to a minimum between races to reduce track maintenance. It took 8+ people working on the track over a 3 week peroid just to get it to the point it is now.

Dont let that deter you from racing. The current track was designed to be so user friendly that you really won't need much practice to get up to speed.
