Yes, I have a couple of them. It's the Pro-110. I don't have any history, but what do you need to know.

I have never seen it before. Only wandering about them, there is one in what looks mint condition at a local shop. It sitting in a box and I see it all the time, they want $100 but I bet I can get it for less but not sure if it is worth getting it.

For $100, I'd get it. They're very rare.

Non competitve, yes....... fragile, yes...... part finish bad, yes......, tolerances horrid, yes........ I still like them, but I typically like obscure stuff. It's what it is worth to you.

Thanks for the comments.

It dues not look very competitive but it is an interesting car. I actually like it.
What I was interested in learning is how it drove and if it was actually use on racing back in the day.

I will try to get it next time I go.
:D

If you get it I'd be interested in seeing closeups of areas like the rear diff mounting, front suspension, etc.
I have one new in the box that is missing the manual, so I've only got it partially assembled. :lol:

Re: MRP Pro-110 - GOT IT!

Got it, MRP Pro-110, it is in very nice condition. Looks like it was driven several times but the tires are still looking good. It also came with a Reedy Force I.
The lexan looks close to new also.
Thanks to MrLex for the manual.

You just described all of MRP. :lol: :P But they have their own niche in the history of the hobby like everything else.
