Default Next Project - SPEED RACER MACH 5

i saw on ebay a old miniz speed racer mach 5 starter set but it was like $125, so screw that so i kept looking and found a jada toys rc mach 5 for like $15 well i got that one, ordered it monday, it came in today,

anyway here it is





it just your basic cheap rc car

the board moves when you drive i dont think its ment to do that



it fits on the scion chassis (it still needs some work to make it fit)



questions/comments welcome
thanks guys

Sounds cool. I see that the mach 5's old chassis has a 130 motor or 2. Like to see it done.

the old chassis has 2 130 motors on it one for drive and one for steering (kinda overkill for steering) and it may be done by the end of next week hopefully

The similarities with that and the vette: that the vette was heavily modded. I believe the vette was a sting ray.

for the movie: it is being made and if i remember correctly (the trailer was in december) it should be out in either may or the summer.
