T-MAXX R/C nitro 4X4 truck

I kniw this isn't a car, but I thought I'd give it a try.
I got this about 2 years ago, and I have well over $1000 invested NOT including the cost of $460 it was new. The engine has a fresh rebuild, not even broken in yet so it's like new. This is the older .15 engine. This is also a 2 speed auto tranny with reverse which is the same as the new ones.
Here are some things I have done:
Heavy duty clutch
Finned aluminum engine mount(better cooling)
spool in the rear differential
metal rear axles(stock plastic ones too weak for the spool)
heavy duty springs
4 different gear ratio's to change
New disc brake with pads(WAY better than stock, stops very quickly)
High-torque steering servo
tires are barely worn at all, they are glued to the rim to prevent slippage
Metal drive gear(went through 2 plastic ones before I wised up)
upgraded air-cleaner, better flowing
1 gallon and 1 quart extra nitro fuel(20%)

I had the Megatech .16 engine on at one point, but broke the connecting rod. But I will include whats left of that engine. The body of the truck I have cut a few times for better cooling. It has no windshield, a large cut over the engine, and a cut through the side of the body toward the engine. It doesn't really matter, the thing goes like 40 MPH anyway so you cannot see it 90% of the time.
Like I said I have 4 different gears for it. Stock is a 20 tooth, which will go about 30 MPH. I also have the 23 tooth(40 MPH), 16 tooth for off roading only because it doesn't spin fast enough to shift the tranny into 2nd gear, and an 18 tooth which is on it now and is good for all around power and speed.

It's ready to run, and I got lots of spare parts and extra tools that go with it.
Looking for a quick sale at $300, shipping is included in that price. If you live close enough to Harrisburg PA, you can pick it up and pay $25 less.
