I hit a squirrel.lol what have you hit?
 

I hit a squirrel at full speed. OMG only if I had it on video. LOL he got in the way and froze.

Nothing yet but I have a new goal in life. Did the little guy survive?

Yeah he flipped a few times then ran up a tree and barked at the truck. I didn't know squirrels could bark. I've ran RCs for over 15 years and have never seen it happen. Funny stuff man. What are the odds.

When i first got into this hobby a few years ago, I had a t-maxx 3.3 and I was wide open going down the street when my neighbors dog comes running out of no where and runs in front of it and then just stops... It was a german shepard so needless to say, the dog wasnt hurt, but the entire right side of my t-maxx was gone... front and rear bulkheads, a arms, shocks, even drive shafts snapped somehow. Oh well... Oh and I have hit a few turn marshals, but i guess they dont count. lol.

Turn Marshals :lol:

I bumped a rabid raccoon last year.
Thought it was a cat, so I tried to chase it, when it turned around I could tell what it was.

(Disclaimer: I love animals, and I have a cat, my neighborhood is full of strays, a few of them actually stalk my Losi when I drive it in the street. I have NEVER hit an animal full speed, or will I ever!)

I was on the receiving end of that last weekend. Took a 1/8 nitro buggy to the ankle at the end of the fastest straight. I thought it was broken the way it started to swell up. OUCH. Next time I'm standing at a slow corner.

Curbs.

Was practicing at a local track and we had a double-double right in the middle. There were some kids marshalling and running back in forth to shag cars as needed. I lined up for the first set and right then a kid took off running without looking to see what was coming. Ended up hitting him in the upper chest/neck with my Hyper TT.

He cried a little but shortly thereafter kids were asked to only marshal from the edges of the track in, not from the in out.

double post

I let my wife try out the truck and she drove it straight into a tree at full throttle literally 3 seconds later. The sad thing is that I only have 3 trees in my entire yard.

Nothing with cars, but when I raced boats I saw a few ducks decapitated. :eek:

Never hit one yet, but I love chasing the squirrels in the yard around. Not that I am mean to animals, but they are severely over populated where I live.

Ya, not sure why they always make me wear shoes. I'm more worried about my shin and ankle. :lol:

so you would rather not wear shoes while marshaling?
