Winter drive 1st aid

[mr_lister999.]

Come on, own up, who broke their cars? There must have been some accidents or you were driving your cars to the full potential [] I bet there was at leat least one car that has changed status from runner to project []

I did see a really nice (new built?) Z3 take quite a bash, also saw a couple of SS rolled.

The bruiser was quite a star bashing and being bashed in equal amounts but I think remaining intact. Although a little muddier than when it started.

Blondini's Terra crusher popped its UJoint and couldn't be fixed on the day - but worked out OK cause it meant he could spend his time fixing mine

Synchrono was running a Monster Beetle that would have graced any shelf, with a hot motor and managed to bust the rear arm on a jump...

thats all I saw, but there were probably more.

bought the HPI stadium truck off blondiniboy, managed to lose the pin out the rear driveshaft twice, meaning it only had 2 wheel drive.

managed to fix it tonight and it will be running tomorrow.

did a nice cartwheel crash tho, must have gone end over end about 5 times.

looked good.

shame you couldnt make it christopher.

roll on tamiya spring/summer drive number 2.........

Ok though it is a body that I use for thrashing with... I did end up with my brat tailgate being removed from the shell(read broken from shell[]) by an overexhuberant mad bull driver[] come on own up you know who you are[]. Well at least celica and txt came out of it ok. More than can be said for andy(a mate) who blew his LRP F1 speedo[xx(] guess who cross connected his battery(My car smelt lovely on the way home, nothing quite like chargrilled speed controller)[:0]

What can i say Biggus it was me[:I] although i was suffering from lots of interference and the wind was against me [:I]. I'll give you another rear panel next time i see you. What can i say i had a brilliant time and Katie[:X] enjoyed it more than me she loved sniffing round for all the bargins i could not beleive how interested she was in it all, i think she was routeing round everybodys parts for sale.

Watch out this lady is on a mission[}].

Finally just wanted to thank everyone for a mint day and lets pull our fingers out and get another sorted real soon (got a score to settle with a brat,you know who you are[].)

[BiggusDitchus]

LOL, no worries only joking, if worried about shell wouldnt run it, after all it is a runner, good laugh had by all. the shell will be used next time, in the condition it finished this one[] err that sounds like a challenge... Im up for it, so is the brat. Once ive removed about a ton and a half of mud and grass anyway[]

Bring on the next one.[^]

well I did my fair share of damage to some of my rides, the Samuari came off worst, whilst going round the circuit in one race, the right front top ball joint came unscrewed from the upright and the wheel fell over and Dog bone fell out. I was brickin it cos I knew I didnt have any spares but after about 10 mins of searching (thanks for the help guys I found it... whew!! the Lunch box also sufferd some minor damage, mind you I was givin' it some on the jumps and in typical fashion it broke the body mounts but Ive now got some new ones so it will be rectified soon.

I think for the Next event I will concetrate on bringing about 6 dedicated runners, and after seeing some of the flyers today, major investment in hot motors and batteries needs to be made me thinks....

As Chris said, my Terra Crusher broke its front UJ which in turn broke the steering servo saver, all was not lost though as i had a spare servo saver with me, just ran the TC rear wheel drive for the rest of the day!!!

Don't take life too serious, you'll never make it out alive!
