Default Is this a good deal?

Hi, I want to buy this r/c tc3 thats comes with a p2k motor and a novak explorer II speed controller (does this work with 7 cells?). I dont know much about this stuff however I want to know if these parts on the car are reliable and make the car fast. The person who I am buying this from is also including an airtronics radio. My question is this a good deal for $110? I plan to just bash around in the front and backyard. If not can someone tell me if there are better deals. Also does this car have replacement parts avaiable from local hobby shops becasue i know HPI is common.
Thanks, Sam

Wow thats a very good deal is everything is in good shape.Now that esc is pretty nice its older but nice.It supports doesn to liek 15 on the motor and yes it will run 7 cells.That motor however very torqe istn going to give you much top speed.Again take the deal learn with that motor and when you wana go faster come back and ask us a nice motor to go with that car.

To be honest, the best thing you have there is the motor. Novak's electrics are always a hit or miss type of a deal. Every one i have had have been garbage, and novak has replaced them up until the warranty ended.
