I have seen buggies getting dirty but not like yours. You have taken it through heaven n hell in my opinion. Did any of electronic part or the engine gets damaged. How did you even manage to clean it.

Actually this is not mine. My buggy died in the middle of final. I changed glow four times during that final and with every glow last only half of lap, then engine shut off. Only first glow last more than 1 lap.

Electronic was OK. Receiver was well protected and no problem, only one servo died during that race. But couple of races killed their engines :s

But every race is not so hard. We have only maybe 2 races during a year, with so hard conditions.

This is our usual winter race.

It's pretty fun to drive on ice.

Thats not a good idea, beacuse these tires can hurt people on the track.
