i was wondering that as well right after it happened. why oh why did i have to test the fail safe and remove it as well as why could it not have gone all wacky in full brake instead of full throttle.. had a bud look at the mess and he almost starting sobbing it looks so bad in person the pictures do not justice.


i'll make a little video of it and post it if you all want to see how bad it really is.

my reaction to it on film as well as the little fire explosion would have been great to have. first thing i saw was burning dollar signs as i ran as fast as i could to the mess trying to distinguish the flames before whoever owned the van came out freaking cuz there was a fire under it.

now all i can do is laugh and hope that ofna helps out tomorrow morning.

worst case i do what packfan said and buy a new one, sell the engine, the pipe, wheels and so forth and try to make at least half the cash back i'll have to spend, all the servos are melted into the reciever as well as the switch.
i am not looking forward to breaking it down at all.
i might hit you up for advice on that packfan if things don't work out at ofna tomorrow.

what really sucks was i was hoping to buy a savage SS when they came out and now i am might have to use some of those funds on this.

rrrgggghhhh.
