Default Rampage MT back yard bash vid

Bit of fun in my backyard, ran for about 20mins before a+b MCD gears let go. the desert rat body is tough as ol' boots with just a couple of creases and a small hole.
I was trying to kill the diff cups after tempering them to no avail, a bit of Rand D work... this was the last weakness with the redcats that had pipes and bigger motors as they kept breaking the diff cup shafts, they were to brittle, but problem seems to be sorted now.
Seems a bit flat on the bottom cos my extended stinger fell off, about 3' of alu tube to clear the body, makes a difference to the tune when it comes off and is way snappier with it in place, i need a 1/8 silicon one

This one's my MT Roger and it's pretty much built now, my new used TT comes hopefully by the weekend and though it has alot of upgrades it still needs a few personal touches and homemade bits like limiting straps, dual steering servo and roll cage...gonna be bust tinkering again for a while
