Woo hoo! My son and I burned through another few tanks on a big parking lot with a nice big patch of dirt in the middle. Perfect for sliding around and donuts. Even hopped up some curbs and tore up some shrubbery. Took another flip and two more curb hits - No Damage!
This was the first time I got this model (or any other car model for that matter) completely filthy! My wife is a neat freak so I had to clean it up good before taking it back inside. Never had to do this before.
After thinking about it, I went for a bucket of soapy water and a large, soft paintbrush. Dig the mini-car-wash! Worked great. After mopping up, then I removed the body shell and just mopping with a rag and some WD-40 did pretty good. Washed and re-oiled the air filter, after-run oiling, now ready for more fun again!
This is a pretty solid model and is working out great for a couple of goofballs like us!
