Bought off of Facebook Marketplace, shortened it 1 inch and put the brushless setup in it.

It’s got a Hyperlite 1404.5 2722kv motor geared 9x30 48p on 1 1/16 x .300w weighing in @ 81.4g 

Powered by a Talon25 with a drag program installed.

Buying or selling slotcar parts of EBay is such a crappy thing. Buy parts and stuff from your local track. Oh so you saved a few $$$ ok. If your local track dont sell parts for more than you can get somewhere else they dont make rent payment and have to close. Well now the track is closed where you going to go race that car you bought not from a track? Saving cash isnt always the best idea.

Brian I didn’t buy this off eBay. I liked the way it looked so I purchased it from an individual seller on Facebook market place. 
After I did a few upgrades on it that were needed to suit me, it is consistent now with the brushless setup.

BTW I own the raceway that provides the parts to build cars. 
 

I do agree with you….support your local raceway!

 

Thank you for your interest.
