My first cars was also aTamiya.... let me think ..
Ah yes , it was the Baja champ and the wild dagger.

But i also had a asso rc10t with a brushless 5.5 from novak . that car was overpowered.
And now i thinking about getting this

wow, more rc'ers here than i thought. I bought one (a buggy) in the '98 (and it was second hand then too) and used it for some months, but dropped it due it got broken (the 'gearbox', and bad battery pack) and also since i dont have driving license&car i cant get to good placed to drive easily.

Hm, maybe i should invest some in repairing it, after all it is quite fun... anyone could give me some idea of the cost of that? Im a really a huge noob within RC.

What model is it ?

You only have to buy a gearbox and a battery pack ? Great packs of 4000mah in NiMH (the ones I use) I buy them 30€ here, in France ... for the gearbox I think it's gonna change with the model maybe ... ;)

model, well, im searching for the documents for it, it wasnt with the car itself i just noted.. anyhow, its a 'team associated' definitly, but model not that sure. Some google research says it could be an RC10, but atm i got no idea.

Yeh, to starter with its batteries and gearbox... after that we'll see. :)

Shared knowledge is the best! :) Thanks for your help, both for search and for identifying it, helps me out to know what to search for in swedish stores :)
