Nitro powered RC car

Anyone interested in owning one of these? This one in particular is a HPI Rush EVO RWD truck.

Havent really got the time to use it unfortunately. It's great fun - can do up to 40mph - will do dohnuts, powerslides, jumps, flips etc etc.

I've been having engine troubles with it - have just been rebuilding a spare block with new piston, cylinder and con rod, so should be in good running order when done. Also had a few other new parts recently including a rebuilt gearbox/diff.

Got a few mods - digi temp gauge to make sure engine is running well and it's not running lean/rich (v v important), front and rear ARBs to improve on-road handling (3 different bars to choose from depending on requirements), plus a cleanable fuel filter to stop crap getting in the carb.

Shell is a bit battered (very battered) and the chassis has a few scraps, but nothing major, certainly doesnt affect the way the car drives.

Couple of vids of it in action:

Looking for around £120. Any interest?
