Default break

i broke a asc 1015 servo and a hitec high speed high voltage tianium geared servo. a radio tray, rod ends, ackerman, v-spec, fuel tank, two bodies, and lots of screws.

i have never broken a part of that buggy until then. that had to be the hardest packed track i have ever seen.

i did not race but watched all saturday and heard from the vrp crew three servos on 1 car and engine mount,witnessed a gas tank and right front shock tower and the a reciever box. none of the cars were able to race the a main due to NOT HAVEING A HOBBY SHOP ON SITE WITH PARTS.
had some one brought a truck load of servos and engine mounts they would be a well paid man today.

My buggy broke just from watching some of the videos, but I did not attend. Looked fun though.

If there was a hobby shop there selling parts, they could of retired of that race!! I have not been to 1 race that so many engine cases broke not counting all the other parts. On the other hand the track was fun just hard as concrete!

Between the three buggys and one truggy in our camp the carnage equalled 2 engine cases, two clutch bells, three fuel tanks, three servos, a radio tray and about 8 months worth of wear on a brand new chassis $$$$$$$$$$
