I can vouch for this statement I ran my car in our state race this weekend also. The first lap of practice on the back stretch, I hit a barrier, no pipe, no flapper but a 4x4x8 wood. The barrier won of course. The battery move forward breaking the locator, snapping the ball joint for the center shock, cracking the speedo case, and breaking the arms of the servo. It's a good thing I tape the battery also. Well I manage to put everything together againg but I had to run the servo flat on the chassis. Everything went ok for the first qualifier second qualifier didn't charge the battery. I asked Tim Potter to look at my car and he suggested some changes and I did that. Sunday morning practice the car felt great. I didn't touch. Third qualifier I lost one of the spacers for the flex plates put me out and my speedo started acting up so I decided not run the main.

I'm enjoying this car compared to my other 1/12. I just need to get more track time on and be more consistent.

Jason, I'll be putting an order in for some spares
