...and damage was done!
 
myself and some buddies got to do some bashing today!

earthquake 8e, ran good till the batts were almost done when a nasty tumble on pavement broke the steering link.
i was doing backflips of a small skate board ramp:)

losi strike with a vxl system on 2s lipo, hit a snow bank at full speed and jumped over 30 feet! broke a shock!

exceed mad speed, broke a camber link:(

my friends aftershock 3.5 was running good. he is a nitro newb, and has 7-8 tanks threw it. the motor starts soo easy and is wicked fast!
but when he tried running it on a rocky road, a rock cut a rear tire. oh, and he broke the rear of the body off a jump. i said "did you put duct tape in the body?" he goes " yes, just not on the part where it broke"...lol
he loves the truck. and im amazed how well it handles.
between our RCs, we just placed an order for $50 worth of parts, thats the price we pay for a great day of RC fun[>:]

RE: ...and damage was done!
 
Right on!, I took My tornado to Our local skatepark one year, I was hitting a 6ft vert ramp at a good 28-30mph ( almost full speed ), Doing double and triple back flips into the baseball field next to it, I had to of hit it over 20 times and NOTHING BROKE, Only thing that happened was the exhaust popped off the rubber seal, The nest day I launched it off My roof a few times.. And well.. Here's the vid..lol
