Default RE: !?! official xt2 thread !?!

Where do I start.. I'm pretty unlucky when it comes to "bashing" my car around.

I've had my Xt2 for a couple years now.

I've destroyed pretty much everything on the car at least once.

-3 differential housings (rear)
- stock engine blew itself up (replaced with a Diablo .28 by Peak Performance)
- 4 lower suspension arms, 2 upper (front)
- 3 drive shafts (various)
- 2 front shocks 1 rear shock
- complete body replacement to the hop up alum 5150 part.
- multiple servos (I think 4-5)
- servo mounting plate
- steering mount


My BIGGEST crash was when I was running the car in a huge empty gravel parking lot. The only stationary object in the whole lot was a 10 inch steel pole and a large trash can. I was standing in such a position that the pole was blocked from view by the trash can. Well, needless to say, I hit the pole doing 40(mph) completely destroying the whole front end, driveshafts, shocks, and body of the car....

It was a sad day. but a bit of work, and $120 later, the car's in tip top shape again, still bashing to this day...
