Default Just couldn't pass it up

A couple of years ago, I got a Matrix and raced it two or three times before turning it over to my son while I race my truggy. Since then, I've wanted another buggy but was waiting for the right deal to come along. This week, that deal was put in front of me and I couldn't resist. One of my friends had an MBX5 that he raced twice. He offered it to me for 300 bucks. This included a new JR9000T for steering and new ACE DS1015 for T/B. Now it may not be the Prospec or the MBX5R but, seeing as I'm only club racing, I think this will do just fine. Good thing I had an extra Jammin JPX .21, JP2 pipe and spektrum receiver in my box 'o stuff. I really think this is turning into a serious illness. Maybe I should join a support group.

....It's okay Chopped02. We're ALL Nitrohaulics.

But seriously, that sounds like a smokin deal, assuming it's all in good condition.
