Thats also a good strategy!! wont work on a plane flight though
Breaking parts depends on a lot of things, Luna hasnt broke a dif case yet and the tracks you run on are slow compared to what we have here. You also do not race anywhere near as much as we do (homestead, Joliet, SWCS, Nova challenge etc etc) At the big events saturday night is "rebuild night" all gears are replaced, most bearings and any other sketchy part that you dont want to worry about. And you know "Murphy's law" is in full effect with RC racing!! When you start running the bigger races you will see, i can understand where your coming from because you havent been exposed to the higher levels of competition yet!
It looks like this X3 is a contender, was it run in stock form besides the tank?
