this really sucks. i crashed my jato 3.3 pretty bad today. i rolled it and brock a turnbuckel, sway bar, cracked the dirt guard all the way to the on switch and chipped about an inch piece off the corner. I HAVE ONLY HAD IT FOR 2 OR 3 WEEKS. not like it affects the car much or costs a lot but i did not want to break anything this early.

i have a question. why did you take your dirt guards off your rc car? and what did you use to combine the 2 exhaust pipe lines. fuel filter. planning on doing all that but need a little more money first.

but after reading prolines descrption of the tires they are calling it a rock crawling tire and i read somewher if you install a tire on backwards it had more rock crawling bite. So i think they designed and then flipped it for rock crawling...
