Default Mad Beast...it lives!!!

I'm still impressed with my Mad Beast after owning it for a few years. It's not stock anymore as it is using a savage flux roll bar, wheelie bar, body mounts and terrapins, as well as a solar d772 servo sometimes running off a no brainer bec. It has recently acquired a new 2000kv motor and a Hobbywing 150a ESC, and runs great. Since rebuilding it, I have beaten the heck out of it and can say it is as durable as they come, with castor blocks(C-Hubs) being the only consistent weak point (for me at least!) I believe that the manufacturing mold they use has a flaw which causes them to break in the same place every time-front or rear. I'm currently sourcing alternatives, but since that part is only 2 bucks a pair, I've built up a bit of a reserve stash!
