what to do witj my kyosho rb5 sp edition
well i was into the hobby a couple of years ago first i bought a jato3.3 then wanted to race so i bought a kyosho rt5 but soon relaized the stadium truck class was dead. Then decided to buy a kyosho rb5 cause the buggy class was still very popular at my tracks and was basically gona just swtich all my electronics to the rb5. So i put the buggy together and pretty much lost intrest in the hobby by the time i was done building it. So i have had the kit built but never put the electronics in it or glued the tires of painted the body for about two years now. i just recently dusted off my jato and started fixing it up but dont really think im gona one race any time soon only bash. Now what should i do with the rb5 there comeing out with the rb6 very soon so im pretty shure the rb5 is gona loose its value should i try to sell it now on ebay? if i hold onto it will it be worth money as a collectors item down the road? please help me out

RE: I feel alone at my track with my Rt5
yea somim thinking about buying a new car soon either the jammin short course truck or a 4x4 buggy. But i must say the rt5 is a great truck. Im faster then alot of the short course trucks on there[>:] But im deceiding if i bu a new car should i use all the electronics that i have in the rt5 and retire it or buy all new stuff and have 2 trucks at the track i guess i can always switch back and forth but thats a pain[:'(]

I feel alone at my track with my Rt5
hey well i have a kyosho ultima rt5 I run at my local track. My driveing skills have improved tremendously. But i feel left out because nobody really runs 2wd stadium truck no more at my track its all short course and buggy[:(] Im not a biggest fan of the short course trucks but im starting to like some of the 4 wheel drive ones. But i feel i bought the wrong truck even tho i love stadium trucks i think they ride better then some of the short course trucks there. But im a pretty much a noob so i really dont no how to tune my truck to the track but i have the right tires which is the biggest part[>:]. But what im saying is every one who has the same truck there has the same set ups. No body there really runs my truck but my truck runs great and handels well. But i dont know how a rt5 thats set up for my track would feel is what im saying. But im trying to learn more about set ups.
