5kg's of Savage at about 30kph!!!

OUCH!!!!

[stulec52]

that's the kind of thing that get r/c'ers a really bad name

[fatboyslim]

Well yeah I will say that the Savage driver should of been much more aware of other people movements so as to avoid that happening!!

Imagine the compensation claim if it had hit the girl smack in the face and broke a few bones!!

they don't call it a SAVAGE id="size3">for nuttin'!!! []

Wonder which was more noisy, that yapping git or a screaming 25. []

[BiggusDitchus]

Ouch that gotta hurt, total stupidity on the savage drivers part I reckon.

[Petrolhead]

ouch. I would have loved to hear what she had to say afterwards!

That's gotta hurt. But I wonder who wasn't supposed to be there? Looks as if some type of meet was going on (more than one truck running, some people watching and maybe a pit area???). Not defending the driver or putting blame on the girl, but it would be interesting to have some sort of context other than a 30s video. (Also if she was riding on a BMX track she should have been wearing a helmet and proper safety gear[])

If there was ever a RC truck built for a BMX track, the HPI Savage is it. They are tough as old shoestring and survive the abuse unlike some other RC brands.

BMX tracks are designed to be "one way", there's a starting grid and a finish line. BMX races don't do laps.

Generally speaking, BMX racers are predominantly male and whenever someone turns up with a huge RC truck, they're either (1) very impressed and crowd around to look or (2) at least not stupid enough to ride their bikes at the same time.

Trashing a Savvy on a BMX track must rank highly as a Must Do in life - bring a smile to your face. [8D]

I gotta wonder if she is one of the drivers' significant other (girl-friend)???
