RC CAR for Robot Platform

Some time ago there was mentioned an rc car that was a favorite for
conversion into a robot platform. The unit had two motors for
differential steering and was fairly inexpensive. I would appreciate
visiting with original poster if possible. I would like to find out
the make/model and also find out more about the conversion.

Thanks!
Vince

    I started building a robot with that car body when it was previously
    suggested. The car is called "Racin' Ratz". I would be happy to answer
    any questions you might have about turning the car into a robot. Feel free
    to email me. I can tell you more about what I did and send some pics if
    you want. (I will be posting pics on the web in a a week or two as well.)

    Regards,
