hpi rush problems
I had a nitro rush. After 2 years it started breaking almost every day. I would be at the lhs 4 times a weekend. I swictched trucks to a Losi xxx-nt. After having this truck I will never buy another stadium truck again. Also have you been thread locking the screws that you are supposed to?

i think u didnt thread lock it becuase Dagass's bro has a rush, we put it through a HELL of a pounding, and nothing brekas on it, might lose a dog bone but thats it. the thing IMO is VERY durable.
