  5. Have you got a RTR chassis yet? The prices on the Hi-Pro motors are outrageous and so are some of the Drag Controllers. The slot car track in Belvedere IL had a Drag Strip but closed last year. Some of these guys had top of the line stuff. $377.00 for a motor. $800.00 for a controller. $ 30.00 for rear tires. Mike

  24. The only 100% way of telling that a man has prostate cancer is to have a biopsy done. I had a biopsy done before the surgery. PSA is just a test not a diagnosis. Warning do not have a biopsy done in the doctor's office you will never go back!!! Trust me. My biopsy was done in the hospital under anesthesia. Medicare and Humana paid for everything. Good luck to all Mike
  25. I agree the wheel backs are the way to go.
