AFter a few months, and seeing how insanely much money you can spend on one, and getting bored hitting the same jumps all the time.....the boredom became extreme so I sold it.

I realized I wasn't just spending all day at the track for 30 minutes of track time, but to spend all day razzing my friends

I continued with racing, and thankfully I didn't sell my Nitro vehicles, or I'd had to buy the stuff all over again So I'd wait awhile until the honeymoon effect wears off on the Baja

BUT, if you are primarily a basher, NOTHING beats a 30lb truck and 45 minutes on a 1$ tank of fuel!!!
I do not really race too much anyway, I may once every 2 months or so.
