well took my eye of it just for a quick sec then wack but i did hit the breaks so it was not really going that fast but it did some damage..:doh:

do you think they sell the traxxas cv axle in just a pair ? or i have to buy the 4 of them?

oh it time to get RPM arm:LoL: its funny that the stock push rod didnt damage..its because i turn to the left a bit when impact...

what do you think of this damage? minor or pretty major ?

my first crash too..darn RB gose to dam fast in half throttle..

Ouch, sounds like a good excuse for some RPM upgrades. Not a bad crash at all though. Good carnage! Truck looks great though, what body is that?

you think they sell its in pairs for the traxxas axles? or all four only..if not just have to get the all four..and rmps all the way..well its another 140$..
 
NICE!!! Love it, simply love it...broke one a-arm myself cuz i looked at my buddy's REVO a split second too long...DAMMIT!!! Good carnage man!!:yes::yes:
 
I came VERY close to getting the protoform hard drive body myself, and I'm kinda wishing I would have now.

White RPM arms sure would look good with that white body. About the second time running my T-Maxx (first truck when I got into RC's) after break in, I was showing off in the yard because my Mom was outside. I was making a high speed pass across the yard, and we had a metal lawn chair (the old ornamental iron ones) in the yard. I saw it in plenty of time and turned the wheels sharp enough to miss it, but... I turned the wheels the wrong way lol, ran right into the dam thing. Did WAY more damage than that. The wheel kept on bouncing and rolling all the way across the yard. Of course Mom said "Why did you do that, you're going to tear it up" like I did it on purpose or something. So the moral of the story is, the RPM A-Arms that I put on were the best investment that I ever made. I wouldn't trade them for the world.

Nice carnage! New A-arms, why not just duct tape em?

i know duck tape dose wonders but it would just fall apart from vibrations/flexing when running the truck..the arm cost like 7.50$..but the axles cost 70$clams..oh well crash is part of the game..happens to all of us..damage=having fun..no damage=no fun:LoL:...next week again ill be back for that rock:hammer::hammer:
 
i like that body, glad it didnt get torn up! time for some upgrades!! :LoL:
 
I wasn't serious about the duct tape comment, that was my lame attempt at humor. I've failed once again...LOL.
