I let my brother take my xxxnt to the track w/ a friend the other day so he would have something to drive. they were there about two hours total. Anyway when it was over he called and was all excited. Hes like I only broke 3 things!!! AARRRGGGHH. what did you break, he replies i bent the thing that holds the suspension arm on (hinge pin) and broke 2 parts on the motor. IM LIKE WWHHHAATTT!

Anyway he has not been home yet so I can not see the damages. Just thought I'd share a little experience of mine of the phone call that really pi**ed me off last night.

And why did you let him use it? The only circumstances I let my little brother use it is when i'm over his should, and on an on-road track only (I have a stadium truck)

well before he left i told him if he broke he would buy. So this could work in my advantaged if the engine is screwed.

oh well

Atleast its some what in one piece

Ok he jsut came home this morning and I have everything figured out> He doesnt know too much about r/c but here goes. It wasnt really the engine it was the rear pivot block, and something else. He said the engine b/c these parts are near the engine. (lol, see how i could get scared), and he forgot to tell me a guy up at the track fixed it for him. So i am happy. Maybe if i let him take it again he will blow the engine or somthin.

Good idea.....


but bad...I think RC are expensive enough, that us : Builders, Creators, Drivers... Should only be the one using it...or at least like Billiam411 sayd, watch the damn person driving it.


like I know if it hits front end of my car, I know wich parts will probably break/get loose/fly away, same for the rear end and other sides...and from there I'll know what to repair...


anyways you got lucky...and thats an other good thing about RC 90% of the people are really nice, they help each other, even if you are a total stranger
