    I know plenty of guys at our track who do well on a tight budget, but lets face it there still is a "budget", the batts constantly change, and we know how batts can affect things..:) on top of that we are in the days of esc wars in our pan cars... the computer savy can pick up some speed too....

    I will agree though, no matter how much fancy equipment you got you gots nothing if you cant point it where "she" needs to go...lol.... money can buy lots of things but it cant buy coordination or reflexes..... if you guys are in the cold states with frozen ponds I highly suggest looking into carpet oval racing... lots of fun..

      Jason, That is one sweet looking pan car. Congrats on the second place finish your first time out. Our local track was tore down and burn't. Just not enough people around here anymore. Merry Christmas, Robbie
      One run at a time. Then pick up the pieces.

        The car in post 12 is a Corally, I believe. Note the "bag of goo" used to damp the side-to-side motion of the motor pod, the rubber-mounted front axle plate, and the plastic clips that hold the battery straps. Those are all Corally features.

          Hi Guys,

          About 2 weeks ago, for some reason I bid and won a Assoc Rc12 on ebay.
          Got it for 20.00 but it needs tires, esc and battery. I am told the pan cars are extremly fast.
          I cant wait to see it go!

              There is a carpet track opening again near me, used to love running 1/12 pan cars. I know what I'll be buying for winter! Looking at a Carpet Knife or another Associated, I still have my old RC12i.
              If my boats upside down then who owns the one I thought I was driving the last two laps?
