Default BMX Plastic launch ramps!!! Ahhhhhhh *LOOK it will teach you!*

lolOMG! My freind had receintly bought a 9T motor and he was driving it around outside his house! AND IT WENT WICKED FAST!! So I

wanted to take me BMX Plastic launch ramp and ramp our cars off of them. well My freind woulde'nt do it! So I asked him if I can put his

motor in my car and ramp. WELL....... He let me. so I had the motor in my car with his ESC and was zooming up and down the street to

get use to the speed. So after I used 2 batterys on it I put another one in and started to hit the ramp. First at slow speed, than faster,

and faster. ant about %75 trottle I was getting about 10 feer of air and not extremely bottoming out the car. So I decided to go to the

extreme. So I put the ramp at the end of his driveway so it will ramp across the street. so I started at the top of the driveway and full

trottle right off the start. got up to top speed and hit the ramp dead on. and ill tell you. It went WAY higher and farther then we thought it

would! Well It ramped across the street! And right in to the rear end of his neighbors sons car. Right at the end of it right by the license

plate. and ill tell you it left a mark! After we just found out what happened we ran over to the car, grabbed the Rustler and ran for are life!!

This happened today and I hope he desnt find out who did it. Ill be in so much trouble!! So overall I had a killer time. Dented his neihbors

car. and broke both front A-Arms. Bent both front shocks, cracked the body, and Killed my belcrank steering! overall I think it was worth

it as long as I don't get caught!!!

AND DON'T TELL!! lol

I double spaced it so its easier for you to read!!

I have the bike ramps from Toys-R-Us - Sometimes I jump the 1/8 scale buggies off them. I have 2 ramps with a table top in the middle for skate boards. So I can jump coming and going.

Lots of fun.

I know it was bad.[&o] but, I had no idea that would happen. and I feel bad. ill probably tell him. I mean its not a dent the size of the world its only like quater size. And hes pretty kool. I think im going to tell him. he will be cool, I hope. HAy at least I have people on this board to set me strait!! should I delete this post are should I keep it on??

And if you guys were driving a Savage are a T-Maxx and you hit the rear end of a car at top speed. and it left a dent. Its probably gonna be bigger than the one I made. and your telling me you would go up to there door and say I just trashed the rear end of your car? I mean I bet some of you would!!
MAN NOW I FEEL BAD!!
Time to go to there house!!!
Wish me luck!

I'm with you RR.
You damaged someone else's property - time to take responsability!
People wonder why others don't like to see R/C car/truck/plane/boats - when stuff like this happens and you think you're blameless, others have every right in the world to look down on you.

Your neighbor will respect you more if YOU tell him, rather than have him find out from a neighbor who might have seen you do this.

Sounds like you have you're head in the right place if you're starting to feel guilty. Go ahead and tell him - you'll feel better if you do.

So you are selling your broken Rustlser for $215? Tell me, what gearing did you use with the 9 turn? What batteries? Any transmission mods?

teamsqurltail-I was running a 14T pinion and a 87T Spur. I was using a Duratrax 3000 batt. and the transmittion was stock. I replaced the bearings in them and it made a little difference and thats all. and yah ill just buy the new parts and replace all the fractures ones!

Hmm. Poor POOOR motor. I bet your friend is mad at you now. Go take a look at the brushes and commutator of the supposed 9 turn. I bet its cooked to hell. Dinner time!
