Good to hear you got it together already, still waiting for mine though. 14.5 is fast Man! Really looking forward to running some, especially on the outdoor track.

The body cracked at the edge transitioning from the hood to the grille. I had already put a line of shoe goo on the inside of the body where the body would contact the bumper, I'll just have to drywall tape and shoe goo the whole front of the truck...no biggie.

I just wanted to agree with a prior post....the inserts with the barcodes suck for this truck. I was able to run them in my SCTE ok for the life of the rubber (which has been about 6 months)...but with this truck, 3 race days and 3 of my 4 tires feel like they're just about empty. :(

I can't seem to find any of the AKA foams stand alone for SC, just every other car (and I tend to run the AKA's in all my other tires). Have others that run gold/clay compound tires found this to be an issue, and an insert that is actually available that lasts?

What caused it to crack, did you have any head on collisions or any lawn darting? Also, what body are you using?

Nothing terribly out of the ordinary...I know didn't drive completely clean all night, but nothing stands out as a "Oh, Crap" moment. Like I said, no big deal, Just wondering if anyone had spaced the bumper forward to stick out in front of the body to take a little bit of the impact instead of the body being the leading edge. I'm running a Losi SCTE rtr body.

From my experience, the losi body is the weakest body i have ever used....In fact I had two Losi bodies do the same thing you described while on the SCTE.
Either way, better luck with your next body....
I love how when i spell Losi, my phone wants to auto correct it to losing:lol::lol:
