Anyone interested in an R/C Yaris kit?

This is something I would buy. Same color as my car!

Heel, it's more fun just to drive your 1:1 scale Yaris like that!

Seriously (well, not really), I have an RC Yaris. It is one of those cheap-o Japanese ones, but it is still fun to mess around with it on the kitchen floor...

Cheers! M2

It's this one, and I got it off of eBay....



Search 'RC Vitz' instead of 'Yaris,' they were like $20 total ($7 for the model, $13 for shipping); not worth the money but I just had to have one!

Cheers! M2

You could also get a "proper" RC solution:


http://www.rcmart.com/catalog/rc-min...3-p-24386.html

with one of these chassis:

http://www.rcmart.com/catalog/rc-tam...3-p-26956.html

Some sweet wheels? Take your pick:
http://www.rcmart.com/catalog/tire-w...-c-35_898.html

Maybe pimp it out with some head and tail lights:
http://www.rcmart.com/catalog/rc-lig...?cPath=438_900

Or put some CF-look on the hood, roof and hatch?
http://www.rcmart.com/catalog/rc-bod...?cPath=438_267

So many possibilities... and yes, I once spent waaay too much time and money on RC cars

Do they sell "turnkey" kits for lazy people (like me)?

I've spent that much just on the car, minus the controller and electronic speed control, batteries, etc....LOL Complete graphite chassis, arms, etc....9w motor...its a pit hole if you ever get serious about racing R/C cars....

I had the Yokomo MR4TC...but its in pieces now after i moved to the new house.. Team Orion was my sponsor :)...thanks to my neighbor.
