The strange thing about this crash was that it was not at full speed. I was just 3 to 4 feet onto the straight going maybe going around 15 mph or less. The flying buggy was jumping a double that is not a full speed jump but half speed and he didn't overshoot but just hit it at an angle to land onto the straight. I would think for this to happen both buggies would need to be at full speed or at least the flying 1/8 scale to be a truggy. Either way when it hit you could here everyone go OOOOHHHH! and when I hit the throttle to keep going nothing happened. I couldn't see the damage until after coming down from the stand and was like

Is there a difference between my Taiwanese case and an Italian or Japanese one? Would this happen to a Nova, OS, or Werks?
