|  Axial RTC breakage!
So I was out enjoying the nice weather and bashing on my RTC and I finally pushed it pass the limit! I snapped the ears off the rear driveshaft. I have broken minor things here and there but nothing in the running gear. It actually felt kinda good to break it... Now I know the stock shafts breaking point it feel like I'm testing the waters. Well guess I need to go order my MIP's!!!

You could put Traxxas shafts on for a fraction of the cost of MIP's  |

Ive used the traxxas shafts for years (and,yes, you will break the outdrives with them). If you want driveshaft collars for the traxxas shafts to keep them from popping off of the yoke, the aluminum shock cap rings from the old hpi touring cars fit perfect. They can be hard to find in a LHS anymore, but they can still be had. I had sets of them in my old pit box.

Pede shafts... been running them for quite a while now, the worst that's happened so far is the occasional candy cane!
