| I am despertly trying to get money for a Serpent 710. I already have $360 saved up (engough for a Serpent 710) But i still need money for engine.
The only things i have to sell are:
HPI RS4 3 EVO (to check info read my last post)
Duratrax Maximum ST 1/10th stadium truck (Great actuall truck the engine is just junk. It runs but not very well. I could try and sell this for $100+ but i cant sell on ebay and id rather sell it for $50 then not sell it for $100
Price: $50 but will consider other prices.
Team Associated RC10 Championship edition (When this car came out it was the best possible electric buggy you could buy even thought that was a lil while ago it still competes with mid level elecric buggies. The motor runs great there is nothing worng with the car exept the rear tiers are a lil wared down) to show just how lil this car has been used It has the original Pin tires! This car can also be sold and is being sold alot for collectors porpuses and because this is the Championship ediotin it is even more valuable.
Price: $50 but will consider other prices.
The only thing i have that you could be possible interested in is about 25 Perfect condition Model cars that even though new cost $30+. Ill sell them for $10. They arent the cheap plastic ones these are made mainly of metal and look great. E-mail to recieve a full list of all the cars i have.
Contact me at cjenings@netscape.net or on this post.

| I would just meet you, but I need some notice to prep the car and go through it and make sure everthing is perfect. So let me know in advance. Also, I am not much of a internet guy, sending pics etc. I looks like a hop-up serpent 710. I will try, but no promises on photos.

| For now we go to go racing in broward, and let me tell you it's a blast. with all the Miami guys going up to broward, we have been having a good showing. Our top guys out do theres. We take up more than 1/2 of theirs. I do not have a e-mail, only for my company, so we can talk through this forum.

The guy that paints his cars also rocks!!! He's like almost famous. Discovery channel want to do a reality show about him, titled, "The life of a dog training RC painting celebrity"

| The powerstart was designed specifically for the 710, it has the appropriate guides and is about $ 70.00 brand new (I wouldn't try to save on it, it is a major pain to start with a missaligned box).

| Very interesting never tought I would here smack talk from a fellow team mate DJ. Expected it from some other sources that do not have merit to back it up, on the other hand you do. Just remember If you dish it out expect some dishes in return if you cant back up the talk.

| Well I wanted to wait for one more showing from our group before I opened up the smack talk. But why wait??? Just give me another race or two at your home track and I'll be harassing you. I know my win out there a few weeks ago lacked the competition that was there last week so I won't go beating any drums about it. Last race I had a nasty push and couldn't keep up with you or Rene, much less DJ. But once I get rid of that, I'll be at the front with DJ :P We'll save 3rd place for you ;) LOL....see you guys on Sunday.

| i guess since eric is going to whop me up, even though i beat him this past weekend, outqualified hin at the regionals (mains got rained out), had a faster lap time than he did this past weekend... mine as well just hang the car up and quit. or just ignore some serious bullshit from eric. how he gets to he can just beat everyone except for three people just blows my mind away. but, keet up the good work eric

| LOL..that's funny Joe. First regionals don't count, because I NEVER finished a qualifier. So all you had to do was finish more than 10 laps! Second, you did not do a faster lap than me. and if you did, everyone knows that doesn't mean a damn thing anyways. You probably jumped the wall or something. :D I did out qualify you last race and I was up to 4th place with at LEAST a lap on the rest of the field except for the top 3, AFTER starting in last place. The only reason you beat me is because I stopped racing. If not, I would have been up on you by at least 4 laps at the end of the race. Hell, you couldn't even keep up with Andy and his $.50 Picco. The only reason your car even handles worth a damn is because you beg everyone to help you set it up instead learning to do it yourself. We'll see what happens if Danny & Abraham aren't out there to help you this weekend. So when you can run your show solo and keep up with me, then come talk the smack. ;) In fact, from now on, in the races where we BOTH finish, let's see who comes out on top. I bet 9 times out of 10, if we both run the complete race I'll be ahead of you :P Remember what my car looks like, so you can get out of my way while I'm lapping you. See you Sunday...LOL

I guess my brash, basketball court smack talk is too rough for these boards. I'll have to turn it down a bit. I guess I'll just have to stick to "oh yeah, well my car is faster than your car"
OH yeah...let's move the Go Racing talk to the other thread. We hijacked poor CJ's thread on wanting a Serpent.

THATS RIGHT! .50 cent!
Let me say however that joe and i had a great time in that race. That was really fun.
In any case it wasn't just joe but only 3 guys were able to take my .50 picco!
I would have to say I have the greatest ROI.
(return on investment)
LOL
Let me say also to beat my .50 cent engine you HAVE to STAY in the RACE!

What about if we bet on who is able to finish the race (If any)... Then I'll put my $ 50.00 on Frankie.
If you want to walk the walk and Talk the Talk, I'll put a bit over $ 50.00 for the Smack Talker that can beat DJ to the line... (Balls Cracking... PLOP).
