Got this for xmas when I was roughly 13/14 (I'm now nearly 22) and thrashed it around (alot!).
Just decided to get it out to use in my final year project at uni (Electronic engineering) and remembered how much I loved it, so I've been sucked into the hobby.
After removing it from storage, had to replace the frame and lower chassis (thankyou Wheelspin!) and currently waiting for a new motor+ESC. As I was young, the shell is in awful condition and was never really finished well in the first place... so that's been relegated to a box awaiting a new one, and the posts have been removed so it looks nicer as a chassis. The girlfriend's jealous of the car so I'm going to make a pink shell to keep her happy.
Also thinking about getting a new car (4WD), it's just a shame there's no racing clubs in my area
