Default Barracuda R2 w/ Speedway PAL

Used Barracuda R2 w/ Speedway PAL for sale -

No longer for Sale!

Everything I'm including would be over $680 new, I'm asking $300 + shipping (whatever method you prefer). Or just make an offer. I would also consider a trade for a Factory Team TC3 - but it would have to be either brand new or have some extras.

Car Includes:
1) stock chassis
2) Xenon alum Front C-Hubs
3) Xenon alum Rear Hub Carrier
3) Square alum knuckle arms
4) Speedway PAL drive system
5) Titanium Turnbuckles
6) Center driveshaft one-way unit
7) titanium quick change shock posts
8) alum center shaft holders
9) alum clamp hex hubs
10) Alex Racing Pit Towel

Extra parts include:
front and rear hubs, knuckles and arms, two pairs of springs, 2 sway-bars, and miscellaneous bits - see picture below
Front one-way is the 4 bearing kind (not the stock two bearing). Extra diff assembly - but it has a broken outdrive.

Because I want you to be happy with your purchase, I want to mention the only issues I know about with this car:
1) In my last rebuild I noticed that the right side of the front shock tower had a slight split in the graphite - I reinforced it with a dab of CA. This is a $19 part.

2) Also, the right front mounting hole for the right front arm has been weakened a little - the screw was twisted upwards in the hole and I had to work to get it out, but it looks ok - in fact, I doubt anyone would have noticed it, except that I also reinforced this area with a little CA.

3) The long outdrive on the rear diff has a crack on the end of one of the slots, but this is very minor.

Please look at the pictures - I point these areas out. You will see that these problems are minor. Like I said, I am telling you up front about any issues I know about to ensure you are happy with your purchase.

If you have any questions, please ask them by email as I check that much more frequently.

Thanks.

As stated, it is a stock chassis, and you can see it's condition in the pictures. It has been run both indoors and out.

They are indeed Xenon hubs, front and rear, very good hubs
it also seems you have mid span suspension arms on there.

Great, thanks for identifiying the hubs as Xenon for me! - they looked like it, but I'd never seen the Square ones so I couldn't be sure. In the pics of the Xenon hubs on SpeedTech it shows them with blue spacers - I have some, but only 5 - the pics on SpeedTech imply I should have 6 for all the parts I have... So any potential buyers out there - I only have 5.

Also, yes - the mid-span arms are installed. But I believe all my spares are the long-span.

Default Still for sale - all offers considered

I might even consider trading for a hopped up Factory Team TC3.

Thanks.
