Default Finally got even with the trees!!!

Yep that's right!
I was flying my NexStar and i piled it into a tree. Then the score was trees: 1, Me: 0. That all changed the other day.
I was flying my Zagi and my speed control fried and i lost control. It spiraled up quite a ways and then when it spiraled back down, i smacked a tree going about as fast as a Zagi will go. NO DAMAGE TO THE ZAGI, but i am sure i hurt the tree.
Now i am sure that it's Trees: 1, Me: 1.... Hopefully it will stay that way.

My dad is at like Trees:0 Him:2, he has chopped two trees down to get his Firebird outlaw out of the tree and had no damage.

I once got up tight with a big dumpster. I know that I lost the fight but, I put a dent in it.
