What a wreck!

[RatzoRC]

Well. I gave up on the garage jumping, and went for the 8ft high chain link fence with the TMAXX instead.
I went down my 70 foot driveway doing top speed, (40ish),
lost control when I went from asphalt to grass, (there's like a step down) hit the jump less then perfect.
Kind of went sideway's in the air, and hit the top steel bar at the top of the fence with the rear of the truck first.
I dont know how, but thats what hit first.
I was halfway down the driveway, so I didn't get to see it to good, But I heard it!! PING!!
I'll post pic's of the truck tonight.
Bent a few things, and broke a front shock.
The funniest thing about the whole incidence, was my 7 year old telling his friends to come over cause my dad's about to do something really stupid!

[RatzoRC]

Can't wait to see the pictures. Anything of an action related pic, or are we only going to see aftermath shots?

(Say this in your best Maxwell Smart voice)

So, the old transistion from asphalt to grass step down less
than perfect sideways in the air jump.

Missed it by that much.

Rear turnbuckle, rear axle not moving but still intact, rear shock, front shock.
The fence, 100% OK!

I was really concerned about the fence. Glad to hear it made it okay.

 

[RatzoRC]

I "was" gonna sell it, but decided to destroy it instead.
I'm gonna fix it this weekend.
For my next trick, I think I will try to run it through a sheet of
plywood.

Excellent damage. I couldn't have done better myself.

 

[RatzoRC]

Why thank you EL :arrr: . I'll take that as a compliment.
BTW, Looks worse in real life.

 

[olds97_lss]

You know it's bad when a 7 year old thinks your stupid! That should have told you something.

Good wreck though! Hell, I haven't been able to control mine on flat pavement lately.

 

[sweetmaxx]

That damage isnt bad at all comsidering u were doing 40 into a solid steel object. I think a savage might even have broken somethin. Remember it's not speed that kills, its those sudden stops:ahem: !

 

[Hypedonrc]
