I tried to do backflips with my firestorm on a 4 foot high jump,but without success. I landed upside down and didn't break anything, but my throttle/brake servo quit working,which started the thread called(No throttle response.).....Its almost impossible doing backflips with 2 wheel drive stadium trucks[:@]The 4 wheel drive monster trucks do backflips with ease..Is it because its 4 wheel drive or is it just all in my head?

BIgger tires=more roatating mass. Also 4 tires spinning adds even more to make it eaiser then small 2wd ST's to backflip.

this is kind of off topic but my mom had these little pumpkin clay lanterns that hang on little post going along the side walk.($20 each)
And of cource i didnt feel like picking all of them up and i went to use my rc car. I just barely hit 1 lantern(fell of the post hit the tar and shattered.While im trying to pick that up i go to use my jato again and what happens? i hit another one and it broke.
then i ran into the kitchen and it was like trying to glue humpty dumpty together lol.Luckly my mom was in NC so my dad covered for me and said that the storm we had knocked them off the posts.lol what a day.

Yeah my cousin and i were just fooling around and he has a 1/8 tl aftershock (i have a jato) if i come to a stop he can run me over, otherwise i run circles around him lol. Also if he tries to go over me i punch the throttle to flip him over and (thats only if he can catch me)

I was testing the top speed of my MT2 with a OS .18 TZ, the batteries died on the car, when straight to the curb at 54MPH.

I'll let your imagination figure out what happened to the car....let's just say it wasn't pretty, and I wished I had my camera.
Even the gas tank cracked and it was leaking gas all over the place.

Ouch...Didn't have a throttle return spring? I would never run a nitro R/C without a TRS, too easy for the radio to malfunction/die.



My worst stories are just some wicked wrecks my XXX-NT had while doing jumps and what not. Some broken A-arms, that's the worst I've had so far *knocks on wood*.

I was driving my Firestorm with my brother's savage and we were about 8-10 yards apart facing each other.We both mashed the throttle and while my firestorm front end was just lifting off the ground the savage comes in and collides into my firestorm and my firestorm bounces back about 10 feet [:@]and then it just keeps on going!Later I was checking for damage and found nothing! That just goes to show that HPI is almost bullet proof!(We were both going about 13mph with the throttle wide open!)
