RE: fun time jumping until
dude the slash is the only traxxas that ill vouch for as being an ultimate basher. i lay money that you landed on your tail in the street more than twice. tht part is an 8 dollar part i think. if your hobb shop is doin it for you theyre rippin you off. the only time ive broken that piece is after a few months of bashing and then deciding ot launch it off a flight of stairsbout 25 ft high.
you should inspect the rear of your chassis if you haven already, mine cracked there as well when the rear skidplate broke. i've ran a mambamax 7700kv since new.
