Calvin, it was built up kit without the electronics, but with a 21.5 motor installed. I believe it was Eric's personal car. His solution to the droop screw problem was very neat and hard to detect. It was done with a Tamiya part, but since I had no immediate plans for a kit, I don't remember.
It's a good looking chassis and seems more integrated than the original. You'll be happy with your purchase cause some of the details are better. Whether it's a significantly better performer??????????
Will be sending you a PM about some stuff we worked on this Saturday.
