Default Talk about your crashes!

I was racing a kyosho air streak. drove it a bit to close to shore. it was working fine got it back to the middle of the lake then the back just sunk. Got it replaced and what do you know the same thing happens. For now, i dont have a kyosho to race anymore until i get it all repalced. Also got a zig zag 3. had to take it back 2 times. bought one off ebay and the thing runs great. lol

i ran a N2 mono aground 3 times because of a radio issue.
some one ran over my N2 mono putting 7 threw holes into the boat and riping off the rudder.
two people drove over me in LSH with my hydro only nicking my boat but causing damage to the other ( its all in how you build it )
then i went up on rocks with my P hydro because of radio trouble due to someone coming on my channel.
i stuffed my P mono into the rocks at the bottom of a lake once when i sub'd it , came back up with paint chips.
then i was waiting in the center area and some one drove over me. causing a large gash to the side and prop marks all over it .
and thats about it . that was only last year. I have more but the most recent ones are better
