Default Great time and Rebuild!


Hey guys!
Well this past weekend i bashed my truck pretty good but no damage but i had a blast. First i started with doing a bunch of high speed passes and tuning, then i started driving up a tree and jumping off it, then finally i pulled out "The Big Jump" and had the best time ever. The jump angles almost straight up! Its shaped like Mis' jump on his site.(half pipe style) After a few minutes of this a family of 4 climbed up a hill side that is pretty steep and surprised me they all made it up. There were two kids about 4ish and 6ish and the parents looked like mid 30s and they all loved watching me do backflips and attempt to do some front flips. The younger kid said "i have a green truck but i broked it" which was probably the coolest thing to come out of a 4 year olds mouth. haha. Then i finished the tanks off early because my Hump pack died and my spare could not be plugged in due to different plug.

The next day i decied i will take my maxx apart, switch my spur, switch clutch bell, mod the brake, re-dip my servos, and lastly try my failsafe out again.

I have a few pictures now but there will be more tomorrow night cause i'm waiting for my servos to dry.


Well Here it is!
