I got this as a present from the wife... love it! only drove it twice now... Had a few problems with the pull start - but got use to the short quick pulls and all working fine...

On the second time I drove it - I handed the controller to the wife (What was I thinking!)... first few minutes were ok... then she throttled it on a straight, it changed transmission - hitting high speeds! and she forgot that on the controller left is right and right is left.... BAAAAAM! straight into a wall! Car looked OK.. the foam at the front had come off the screws... and also noticed that the crank shaft was wonky! ARRGHHHH!

Heres a picture of it guys... I've tried to highlight it as best as I could...
it just about touches the other metal rod to its left.... but doesn't look that worrying - But I wanted your opinion on it first...

Shall I replace? Is it easy? Is there a tutorial out there that someone has? What do you think??

Much appreciated on your responses guys... !
Thanks!
