Default just a few pics before 1st gear exploded.

took the beast out today and was bashing on the dirt mound, I drove it up to where the front tires just popped over the edge, stopped it and went WFO with it, tires dug in and shortly after 1st gear decided to take a nap. Im in the process of ordering steel ones right now.

woo hooo!


the holes the rear dug... i love my spool.

Cool looking rig. Hate to hear about your trouble, but the best time to upgrade is after you trash something. These things are meant to be thrashed!

What kind of rims and tires are those again? You got the 3.3 in there or what?

they are Maximizer beadlocks with Rock Rings and the tires are stock Losi Aftershock tires, they are awesome tires and are holding up really really good.

yup just the 3.3 with THS Pipe, Motorsaver and smoothed drill point in the crank. It got rebuilt last year around oct. it had about 10 gallons on it then, I put new con rod, piston and sleeve in and im upto about 16 gallons on bearings now and there still good.
