I think it's called XTM Racing or something like that, haven't seen them in a while now.

It looks like an XRC from around 5 years ago.

Around 6 - 8 dollars. I haven;t checked the price of scrap metal lately, but thats about all they will give you for the weight of the motor. The plastic stuff you can just throw away.

Sorry, was being a wise-guy. I'm not sure if anyone would actually buy one of those anymore. Try $150 and see what you get.

Its was outdated the first day they launched it around 6 years ago. Bad motor, cheap plastic. I bought one to try and be a dealer and it lasted around 15 minutes.
