So: Another 6 hours at PRCR
Total Laps: 7
Lap 1: Half way into lap, Tap another Truck around a corner, Steering lost. Servo saver exploded.
(1-1.5hr Later)
Lap 5: Heading into corner, cut a little Sharp, Nose into Boundary plastic pipe, Steering lost. Servo Saver Exploded
(45-1hr Later)
Lap 7: Take the double (smaller double than previous pics) land square, little chassis slap, go to turn, Steering lost. Servo Saver Exploded.
I obviously know you're all going to hound me for information to find out how I was 'f*cking up' the install, or actually just being a terrible driver. I can't stop any of you from doing that, but I can say with my word, I was not being an idiot on the track, and definitely have a full understanding of installing a simple servo saver.
Other Notes: Another Sc10 4x4'r had huge belt problems that magically disappeared. And yet another broke his servo saver 20 minutes in too landing a little more rough than I did
Bottom line is I'm shelving this truck until I get the STRC steering kit.

dude, i feel your pain man. I blew up 4 f*cking idler gears this weekend.......and it was only the 2nd run on the truck. we were running on a huge 1/8 blown out track, and the truck did alot better than the guys on here make it sound. An sc10 4x4 actually won the race, and the 1st losi was like 6th or something, the rest were sc10's.

On the upside I ran 4 hours and did not brake anything. 
On the downside the new layout at PRCR has one small double you take at 1/3 throttle and the rest of the track is rollers that you don't get more than 6 inches off the ground. It is almost like road course with one double jump. One mistake and you fall far behind someone clicking off laps.
