I had a chance recently to give the 5T its first real bashing. The truck is still stock except for the Desperado wheels and the VRC pipe. I managed to strip a spur gear, loose an e-clip on the front wheel spindle and ding up the pipe pretty good.

Talk about hard bashing, that truck just keeps going and going.
Great video.: )

Thanks rckiwi. You mean to tell me I am shouldn’t land with full throttle, where’s the fun in that.

pwaicon

Thanks guys I am glad you enjoyed the video. My problem now is fighting the urge to go crazy on hop ups, I must stay strong.

Sheograth,
I have to agree, it’s a great spot for bashing that is why I didn’t want to leave Tahoe without running the 5T there. Thanks for hooking me up with such a great deal.[sm=thumbup.gif]

I am so wishing I could go there.
That place is awesome.
If you have stock drive shafts check them if they are not bent I will be impressed.
Anyways awesome video and I am glad to say I have the same truck and love it also.

Very good vid, and now, that is bashing!

I am amazed at how well designed HPI made this rC, as many times as you took a tumble, you almost always landed on all 4 wheels, kind of like dropping a cat out the second story window! You just could not make it land up-side down.

And even more amazing is how tough this truck is, especially after hitting hard rocks that line the track!

Man, you have the absolute best bashing places in America. I'm going to go where you are at one day and bash in some of those spots!
