Protected cooling fan for t-maxx

[t-alec]

I buit a cooling fan for my sportmaxx. It runs off a 9volt battery. I made it from a 9volt battery connector from my alarm clock, a on/off switch with wires from my old car, and a computer fan. I mounted it with zipties to the side of my rollcage, and have the battery ziptied in a little space in the back. :shrug:

You have any pics? I think ElPirata tried something of that nature and it didn't work out so well... but he's hard on his equipment =devil

I went in my backyard today and hit some jumps,and it stayed on great. It kept my engine cool even after riding up and down my hill. Even when it rolled over, the way it was positioned it didn't even touch the ground.
