    i broke my pede

    todays bash my stampede jumped off a 10ft high wall(kinda) and landed on the right back wheel and broke it basically
    as always i kept bashing though, even with teh back wheel sat an angle and teh back end held on by 1 screw and the shell
    pics

    fixing it

    what happens when i go round corners after bodging it(notice the whole back end is at an angle not just teh wheels)

    Always sucks to break stuff. I guess you just got to think twice before doing stunts like that. O well, lol its all part of the experience. Thats how we learn.. from our mistakes lol

    That is the reason I prefer racing over bashing. Have fun fixing it.

    it wasnt too bad, i still drove it around the rest of the day like that lol
    it reminded me of a crab because it was moving sideways
    and ofcource i will be jumpoing off walls again....half teh fun is fixing them and working out some custom part to stop it breaking again

    although i did beat my friends rustler at hillclimbing even thoughj it was going sideways pedes rule!

    Wow, that 'pede got wrecked! I have yet to break something like that on my Bandit . I think Swami's stampede brace should keep that from happening again.
