That looks pretty awesome.
I used to race nitro cars back in my youth, I remember seeing a baja in my local shop when they first appeared but it was out of my reach ££ wise at the time. What do these fetch now? £700-800? |

Yes Chris well recognised she is a Baja 5b 1/5th scale petrol RC car she has a 28cc engine good for 45mph ish i think, dont have it yet but on its way.
Think that is about the going rate for a standard one but this was owned by a real enthusiast he had a few of them so this has quite a few upgraded parts bigger engine (26cc is standard), upgraded suspension etc. so a fews more quids worth Sure its something different isnt it  |

Looks fantastic and a massive bonus with the upgrades as these don't come cheap. For anyone who doesn't know these things are pretty big for an rc buggy, 820mm length and nearly 500mm wide, 2 stroke 26cc motor as standard. Would love to see some videos if possible when it arrives. |
