MM, I've seen your photo, I know 'roughly' how old you are. Don't you read the posts in this thread? Unless of course that wasn't you in the photo? If it wasn't then you've just lost all credibility with me...and I am one of your few supporters!

Foxy I don't think that it was mm in that photo. It doesn't make sense that he guards the truth about his age so vigorously if he published a photo of himself.

But I wonder why his age is such a secret if it isn't because he is very young.

It is funny though - everybody knows mayhem maniac and nearly everybody has an opinion about him, but nobody knows if he is a real person or if he has any r/c vehicles apart from his little electric toy.

I'm still waiting for the photos of his nitroplane and of the parts he claims to have broken recently.

Everytime he posts a new tale it adds to the feeling that this is all a lie, but I'm still hoping to be convinced that I'm wrong.

Just take a picture of the buggy. That is not that difficult!

the wing mount bent in a nasty crash that bent the rear shock tower, the wing mount, and the rear chassis stiffner


Just a picture of this. I am not that interested in the broken a-arm that you can't find. You don't need any excuses about anything. Just a little picture.

You have a digital camera and if you really has this buggy and that accident has happen, then it should be possible to take a picture.....

That looks like it would be him. I can see the devious look of "Ha, Ha, I am going to mastermind a 25 page thread, in which every 1/8th buggy forum member will endlessly doubt the existence of my alleged r/c collection, right after I finish this delicious chicken sandwich." I would guess an age of 16-18.

It doesn't look that bad. How did you crash?

It looks like I have been wrong about whether you really owned that buggy or not - so I will stop arguing that you don't.

I still doubt that you have that nitroplane, but I am glad that it seems like you have the buggy

Is it you on the photo?

1) I went off a plastic BMX ramp, and it landed a bit funny, and went cartwheeling. next jump, i go off the jump, and the throttle engages, and the thing lands on the wing. bends the shock tower, and the chassis stiffener got bent to almost a 90 degree angle. bent the tower, and stiffener back. both shall be replaced.(turns out that i had the idle too high, and the clutch was engaging without any throttle being given

2) It may very well be me in the picture. By the way, that was a good sandwich.

I sure hope it was not a little ramp, better be a four footer! If it was one of the little ones you need to burn that mayhem cause it's junk! If you go to the official mayhem thread and see my links to my videos you can see how much my buggy can take And I don't have any broken suspension parts. I have put my mayhem through hell and only broke the stock cooling head. I hope your car is really not that weak. I did bend my wing mount too, but not my shock towers,by the way yours must be 3mm mine are 4mm.

P.S. Where is that nitro plane? Did it fly away? also by the time this thread is over I thinkI'll have 3,000 + posts too!

i think the previous owner completely trashed this thing, because the body is damaged, the shock tower bent very easily,after hearing the abuse they can take, i think it was highly abuse, the chassis stiffener shouldn't bent that easily. the cooling head was also scrapped like hell.

I'll be replacing the chassis stiffener, and the stock rear shock tower shall be replaced with either a mayhem pro shock tower, or a 5mm shock tower.
