Well, it was all grass, but since the hurricane there has been lots of leaves and long grass in the fields, and a ditch looked like it was level ground, then splash, it was in four inches of water and mud. Oh well, it was cool.

You're joking right? You're not actually surfing RCNT while pulling people over and handing out tickets are you?

He's not joking one bit. About 90 percent of the time that he spends here on RCNT, is from the cruiser while on patrol. I kept trying to figure out when his shift was because he would always PM me during the day, so I asked and found out that he's mostly on while he's working lol. Don't worry, that's WAY more productive than anything most of the state employees around here do. At least he's not running an organized crime ring and passing gambling legislation to get millions under the table in his pockets from the casinos. Who would do that, you ask? Our governor from a few years ago thats done as much time in Angola as he has in the state capitol lol.
 
I'm not anal about my stuff, I see this thing like i see my 4wheeler, play, rinse repeat.
I have to agree with you on this. I haven't really washed anything on my 5b except the air filter. If want to blow the dust off of it, I just drive it faster.
 
I just took the wheels off and cleaned the grass out of the bearings in the carriers, and wow, that crap was so compacted into there, it looked like a flat plastic washer. almost put it back on, until it started to come apart.

Well at least you get to run your buggy,nice job!!!!!
 
I know what you mean, I think that's the best feature of the baja. It makes running your RC's a lot more compared to nitro IMO, and I like to work on my rigs, so it says a lot when I say that this changed my mind about nitro.

The good thing about the baja, if you get it really muddy, you can remove a few pins in the radio box and pull out the entire enclosure, same with the fuel tank, and then you can clean everything spotless with the water hose or soapy water, then once you dry it off, it only takes about 10 minutes to put it all back together. I haven't had another RC that was so easy to disassemble for cleaning.
 
It looked like you were out driving it in a swamp, I guess it was a good thing you took the wheels off, all that junk behind them might have robbed you of some of that power that big ol' girl puts out, LOL it makes me want one, I've watched some of vids of them out in the dunes and man do those things fly..
