I've lightly run all my old cars but I wouldn't really consider them runners, my B3 and T3 are the real runners. My graphite Stealth gets the most runtime among the the older cars I have. With that said I have to agree with RC104ever, if I owned an edinger I wouldn't run it just restore and shelf it. Tons of RC10's go for cheap, I remember I bought my a-stamp cadilac for around 100 bucks. Just my 2 cents.

yes, i do understand & i'm hoping that I don't injure it...I already put contact paper on the bottom to help protect against scratches. I haven't hurt it any and hope not to. I'm the one driving this one and I am driving it lightly... My main focus is really trying to get 5 cars that are operational, so that I can play with my son & his friends....father/son, bonding. $100 a car doesn't sound like a lot, until you factor in, needing 5 operational cars and replacement parts :( It's really not in the budget to go out and buy all good "runners". The kids don't have much fun, watching it sit on the shelf :wink: I do apologize to those that feel a "pain" knowing that this is going out and running....but, you do what you gotta do.
