Ran into my own parked car!!
Finally got a new head, got the revo running good.. 5th pass on the street and BAM right into my Trans Am.. Revo hit the K-member of the car causing the motor on the revo to fall off. Header is bent straight up, new head cooling fins are bent, motor mount broke off, the aftermarket intake looks like an accordian, the handle you pick the truck up with broke off, the throttle "V" thing broke as well.. Man, this blows!
I knew I shouldnt have been drinking!!
Hope the internals of the motor are not screwed up. Anyways. laugh it up!

LoL, sounds familiar. First day I had my Revo out to do the engine break in I slammed it into my parked car, lucky for me nothing broke but now I drive away from parked cars. Hope your internals are still alive!

RE: Ran into my own parked car!!
I only had one beer for breakfast to get rid of the hangover from the night before. This was around noon but i went to bed at 5 in the moring. Anyways, I was standing on the side of my truck (which is a 4+4 and cant see over the hood) facing the street and the Trans Am was on this side in the street parked past my truck which was in my blind spot (if you can piture this). So, right when i peeked my head around the truck to follow the revo is when i saw the TA "oh crap, brake". By then, it was too late.. BOOM! Oops!
Just wasnt thinking...
And I dont drive my Trans Am or my Truck drunk guys. If im going out to get drunk i just cab it or catch a ride.. No big deal.
So, to drink and smash the revo.. Great, no one got hurt and it'll cost little to nothing to buy some parts. I'll get it going next payday! Thats for sure, now that the weather is getting nice! Gonna go run down some chics on roller blades! HMM, I wonder if that'll work to meet some women? Dought it. Ill get a roller blade up my butt.. Anyways.

If you can't pick up chicks in the T/A you won't with a R/C car either
I have an 11 sec (nitrous powered) T/A myself.

Ouch, that is on the low side. But I guess I deserve it. I dont take the TA out much, as it is still in storage. Im still new to the area and havent found the right hangouts yet.

RE: Ran into my own parked car!!
Well, if that's how it's gonna be...
It was awesome on the street, crappy at the track. On the street, I hardly lost. at the track, I only ran a low-14... Picked me up enough chicks to score a wife. Then, I sold it because it was just rotting in the AZ sun (I lived in an apartment complex without covered parking and I was too poor at the time to afford a car cover)

HAHA. I pick up chicks with a 1996 F-150 that I havent washed in the last 2 years.
It's a big POS but I do just fine. I bet I could do it with the revo if I tried....
Hmm that gives me an idea.

RE: Ran into my own parked car!!
My first car was a Trans Am. There is a place here in Houston called Motorsport Technologies that is popular for modifying F-bodies and Corvettes. They ended up doing a 383 stroker and a bunch of other stuff before I blew two engines and decided that I was done with sports cars for a while. After a few years of driving SUVs I decided to get something nice for the weekends.
I'm going to get some shots of my LST and Revo on the hood and make that my new avatar tomorrow.
