Default ? question?

Hello everybody, i had a ? would it hurt to put duct tape on the bottom of the buggy where the hole is for the gears, I thought it mat keep out dirt, gravel and etc. Kinda protect the spur gears from dirt and the sort. By the way i have a tornado xp 2 speed. just a thought, what do u all think? Also i had a idea of putting 2 zip ties on the head of my tornado in case it took a roll over it will protect the head from scratches. What do u all think?

i leave mine open on the bottom this way if a rock is kicked up is has a place to go out from also i put the zip ties on my cooling heads but they dont seem to last very long, always popping off, maybe from the heat but they are cheap enough so why not???!!!??!

It keeps the head from getting scratched up from a rol over.

I put stickers on all of my holes on the bottom of my cars . But not on the fuel over flow and the one's that I start on a box. I do all racing and a lot of the track's or clay or rock hard dirt and it is just easy to cover up the hole's And if you have raced you know that you will end up on your lid sooner or later and your sponsors like it too
