Recommended Posts

:D

was giving it full beans in a field, then hit a mole hill all skew-whiff at pretty much full speed (didn't see the molehill by the way), put it into a wicked carthweel for about 3 metres, flipped over, and then to top it all off it came to an abrupt stop when it hit a sheep water trough...

ahhhhh, i am so addicted :)

(oh yeah, forgot to mention...no damage!)

:blush:

barely./ i did over £140 worth of damage!

Matt.

Makes my first crash last week look like a walk in the park!!!!!!!!!

Going full tilt along an old car park, caught a bumb or something as I'm trying to steer it around a big kerb I'm heading straight for,

carried stright into the kerb, clipping the front wheel, nigh on tearing it off.

New knuckle, wishbone, steering plate, gearbox, and a couple of other bits, going to cost me around £30 in parts :D

Got my brand new 8ight t out of box, ran engine in then took outside to do the recommended figure 8s, got bored and opened it up a little and promptly slid it on frosty drive sideways into my mates house breaking rear hub carrier and bending hinge pin.

Hinge pin= straightened with hammer :D

Rear hub carrier (pair of)= £3:39 :lol:

Not too painfull, just hacked off because I couldn't bash that weekend :(

i crashed my firestorm into a kerb. 3 times! first couple of times it bent the upper deck a little bit and broke the brake disc (fixed - with a 2p peice :D), and when i was driving in a field the front bulkhead broke, then the third time my radio glitched, and it went flat out into a kerb. not even a failsafe could have stopped that one. i broke the steering arrangement, front bulkhead (again!) and bent the upper deck 90 degrees.
