It wasn't this wekend but last week. We just got a nice crust on the recent snow we had. I also just bought paddle tires for in the snow and was ready for some fun.

I was taking passes out into the feild behind my house and spinning around and coming back. I did this like 5 times then the last time when it came back to me and spun around I had no throttle or steering. So I checked it out. Snow got inside my reciever box thru a plastic bag and a balloon into the reciever.

I couldn't stop thinking what would have happened if it got wet 15 seconds earlier. The field is like a mile long and flat and it was a full tank of gas. I would probably still be chasing it.LOL

So I went friday and got a failsafe and return spring for it. All is safe for the snow now.
