Like I said before he's hardcore...and he has LOTS of stuff. Rest assured...he'll get asked. Hit up Louis (-flood, from the Pegasus thread)...I think they may well carpool to the track, so I bet he has his number...I'll see what I can do...

I doubt it is him as the screen name sounds like another racer I know from Grand Terrace. David has no reason to rip anyone off as he is not hurting for money. It may look odd but there are a few HARD core Losi racers from Grand Terrace. I'll shoot you a PM Later.

Well I appreciate that (I guess?). That would be great if the actual seller would do that like he says he did, and is still saying he's going to do but still hasnt. I have NEVER had a package take this long to get from Cali to Texas. Parcel Post or not, this is absurd.

But that brings up another question, maybe for the Losi thread, but why would plastic outdrives cause you to scrap your entire rear hub and axle assembly? Two people have done it so I guess theres a reason? It doesnt make sense to me to sell those parts though. David sold his for $26.00. It would cost close to $150.00 to put that exact same setup back on the truck.

I'm not really a losi guy, but the plastic setup is lighter and it never breaks. I don't know why they changed it...

There was an RC track in Grand Terrace for 15 years. .and it closed a little over 2 years ago...

David is a pretty honest guy.. I've known him a long time. He's done a lot of ebay and never screws anybody.. Now.. the USPS.. well.. they do loose things...

Both these guys bought new XXX-Tcr and wanted to run "aluminum" dogbones for stock. You have to change the axles and hubs to run them..

Now Mark just started on ebay and had me help him get all set up and list a couple of things. I am assuming it was you with the "rude" message sent to his ebay account stating only "this item has been reported!" with no other explanation...

I always like to have insurance on anything sent via USPS as a seller and a buyer on items over a few bucks....

You know, everyone keeps saying David is such a nice guy, but he wont answer my calls now OR my emails and give me this mythical tracking number THAT WOULD SOLVE THIS PROBLEM IN 10 SECONDS! I'm just going on what I see. And I know it has NEVER taken this long for a package to travel from Cali to Texas. Were now in WEEK THREE! And he says he sent it "Parcel Post", well a package has to weigh at least 1.6 pounds to be sent Parcel Post otherwise its sent "First Class Parcel". Theres a big difference in the two. I doubt two hubs and axles weighed 1.6 pounds.

Pardon me "flipping out", but that doesnt jibe with what I've been told.
