Well, I did it again. This time my 6 yo broke the Slash. It's not too bad but dang look at the E-Maxx... sheesh be a while to get that one back. Concrete curb on the Slash. The E-Maxx took a head on collision with a concrete light post. It happened after I was bragging to a bud of mine that was with me. I had just cleared a hill with the Maxx when he couldn't with his Slash. I got to start taking a Video Camera with me when I start doing these things. PIC-0011.webp

Hey, at least it was an A-arm though.

Actually it was my caster arm. The A arms I bought were RPMs and they seem to hold up to punishment. I plan to replace the casters with RPMs as well. ;)

Don't worry, if you had seen the beat up it was getting you would have said something more to the likes of "Damn! It held up that long?". :D It was taking even worse abuse than the last time. Running into cement curves, wood poles holding up swing sets and jumping off stairs. Something about clearing 10 steps or more to the ground just gives you this giddy feeling inside.
I will get a bit more calm now (I hope :p: ) Just ordered some more RPM parts and regular stuff for the Maxx. I need to invest in a camera I guess soon. lol It's just too fun to watch the chaos only once.
