damn i feel stupid

[powder_king]

i was jumping my buggy(xb8) today over a bike path and into a ditch. there was a culvert in the ditch but i wasn't worried bcause it was off to the side. well i was starting to go bigger and bigger and then i lost controll on the face of the jump and went sideways. well the front h arm on the left hand side hit the culvert edge and it did a fair amount of damag


-front h arm has a slice through one suport
-rear hingpin holder(the aluminum thing) pretty much bent in half
-and the screws that hold the hingpin holder pulled out and stripped thediff case holes.


i must say the damage isnt too bad compared to what i thought it was. i guess every noob does something stupid like this at some point

wow thats some good damage, about $50 should fix it though. 8 for an arm, 10 for a diff case. and about 35 for the aluminum piece.

My kid ran mine into a guardrail we had been jumping. Wish I had it on a vid. Didn't see it, but I don't think you could have made anymore noise if ya hit it with a sledgehammer. :LoL:

Knocked out 2 screws and bent the chassis a little. Air cleaner was laying about 50ft. away. He hit square on though, where the bumper took most of it. Ran it 2 or 3 months after that without doing a thing to it. I wouldn't have beleived it. The buggies are tanks! If you do very much damage, I hope ya have video. I was expecting mine to be trashed.

Glad you are running again. Just because ya broke something, doesn't make ya a noobie. Just having way too much fun! :hammer:
