I just bought a CEN FunFactor ATX for $300.00 CAD (NIB)
With fuel, glow lighter, HiTec Agressor radio gear, fuel bottle, spare glow plugs and a few antenna noodles...450 CAD after tax!
There are FunFactors on e-bay for about 200-300 bucks.
I saw a used T-Maxx on e-bay for 250 with a few mods!
For 200 bucks you may need to go Electric or go used nitro!
Good Luck buddy!
here ya go!
Here is a nitro for 200 bucks!

Asmund that is your own opinion. i dont think you should be allowed in a cen forum telling people to stay away from CEN. Who cares what you think!!!!!! There are people in this forum who like CEN products.

ASMUND!
I just bought my first CEN and I debating if I should buy another one!
I would like to know why you dont recommend CEN!
Do you have technical references to back up your opinion or is it just your feeling?

Asmund... I see from your profile that it said you were a previous Genesis owner and you had nothing but problems with it... I have a lot of experience with the Genesis and can honestly say, its not a beginner truck.. Most of the problems are user related... The ones I have used or seen are tanks... very reliable and incredibly strong.. Its too bad that you feel so strongly about bashing Cen that you will come onto the thread and hijack any available thread...
You never give specifics for your reasons however... I would like to know what was wrong with yours before you got rid of it..

Id say with Cen dont put all your eggs in one basket, I started with a Cen MT2 and then bought a Savage and I love them both but wouldnt buy another MT2, maybe the Magnum will be better tho with the upgrades Cen has made.
IMHO the Savage is built better but the Cen is easier to work on, and the Sav can take the knocks way better.
And if I bought another truck it would be a Losi LST2.
Thats my 2c.

Check ebay there is one out there for a MT2 and Duratrax together, bid is currently at a little over $100 with 2+days left. I am currently the high bidder, reserve is not met. The MT2 just needs a Dif cup to be able to run. I dont know how high i am willing to go on this auction, but if you want it I wont try and bump your bid any. But shipping is $40 [

But finding the auction is on you. lol I cant make it but so easy to lose my bid.
