Default Sad story.......what bummer for this kid.

A local kid and his dad just got into the hobby. They purchased a new Lightning ST less than a week ago. During the thrid tank on break-in be was driving it at 1/4 throttle and the lady that lives next to them ran the truck over.......Yes, she meant to. They had issues with here before but nothing like this.

She will not pay for the damage and going to court will take to long and cause more prob. in the future.

I put the chassis in the jig and got it as straight as as poss.

They bought a new motor (old motor case has huge hole in it) and I got it broke in for them.

This is a prime example of a person who hates life.

I have helped out as much as I can, if there is anything any of you can do, please lmk.

Thanks guys.
