My LOW budget build.

She has 36-24-36 numbers, works at McDonalds and gets me a discount.  She is Happy with watching a REDBOX movie, eating fast but nutritious food and looking at the Stars.  OOOOOPPPS!  Thats not the right kind of build is it?  I'll try again!

I built a nice neo 12 f/c for the raffle at OKC Harley Dee race this year, It represented a value of $150 of the raffle.

The body had a refreshing white and mint green body that looked cool and tasty! $20
A C-06 inline wrp chassis (next time I am using the C-10 for the shorter tires) $10
Guide assembly, wires, braids, nut, $4
Tubing $6
Front tires $2
Rear tires $20
Axle, bushings and spacers $5
Wheelie wheels and retainers $4 (WRP makes a nice set of undrilled WBW's for $3)
Hawk motor $15
Ebay NOS Pro Slot 12 arm .480 dia. $15
Champ Reds $2
GD brushes and shunt wire $4
Gears $10
Xmod neos $8

Total $125 all new parts

Motor was set up to make rpm and less torque for bracket gluing.  .560 hole and .480 arm = .040 per side.

Car ran .711 @ 77+ mph at OKC glued in with Kof clear and a few drops of med mixed in.

In the late 90's it would have cost $125 for the motor alone to go that fast!

If you want a fast little ride for not much money, there are your ingredients.  Throw them in a blender, Bake your brain for a few hours and serve up to the loudmouth that said it can't be done!
