how much will my jato be worth?
right now i am building a jato from the ground up. when it is done it will have:
-O.S. .18TZ
-MX-3S radio system
-New Era Models roll bar
-Pro-Line crowd pleazer body
-Pro-Line dirt hawgz tires
-Pro-Line rims (undecided)
-Venom Smart temp failsafe
-Tuned Exhaust (undecided, probably O.S.)
if completely unused once it is built, how much will it be worth? the reason i ask is because i might consider selling it, mainly because i'm starting to lose interest in this hobby

Umm...if your losing intrest why bother building it? Once you install the engine on the rc..whether you ran it or not...it's worth nothing cause who would trust you didn't run it? and if you did how can they trust you ran it properly? I'll give ya $50 for it when your done, you can keep the accesories your adding too

Trust me dont sell it. You will one day really want in back. I losr interest in the hobby for a few months and then suddenly I was just like, R/C time yeah. And then it just came over me again and made think, what if I has sold the car? Trust me dont sell it because you will get back into the hobby and have nothing to do!

The 18tz is a great engine to much power in my opinion for the Jato. My Jato is running sweet with a motor saver airfilter, Dirt dawgs and ribbed tires up front all on rustler wheels, If you've evr run a Jato It'll spin out with the power it has if you just punch it, It does better with The speed hawgs get it to go straight, It's all throttle management. That TZ will have it doing dough nuts all Day

hold on to everything. you will not get enough $$$ for it and in six months you will be glad you have it.. A couple of times I have thought of getting out of the hobby and everytime with in 3 to 6 months I am right back in and glad I did not get rid of anything.
