Status: offline 		Ok, so I buy this t-maxx off ebay, and I get it and start it and everythings fine. I run it a couple of times, Then something breaks. The lhs fixes it, and a couple of runs after that, it breaks again. (different parts) So it goes on like this for about 3 months, and then something major happens. The servos were glitching, so I bring it back to the lhs. They fix it for aroung 50 bucks. I've put over 200 dollars into this(it cost 250 off ebay) so thats about 450 bucks. Ok. I get it back from the lhs and I go to start it, and it turns over a couple of times, then it wont turn over anymore. I've had to take the pull start off about 10 times by now, so I knew what It was supposed to look like. If u have a t-maxx with a ps, it takes a while to get off because of the bulkhead. ok well this time, It just slipped right off. I looked at it, and the crackshaft snapped right where it goes into the engine. I look at the one way bearing, and the crankshaft is still in there. I get it out and it hits the floor and shatters into like 10 peices. I just spent 50 bucks to have it repaired and I wasnt going to buy a new engine so I just bought a rush. all that money for nothing. Its not that funny but worth telling.
