Ive had the same thing happen many times.... !!
Ive also spent more time helping team mates than running too...

Got Driver of the Day(s)/1st in 2.2 and took a nasty hit in the Terra-X during the 2nd heat. Broke one of the RC4WD tie rod ends. Fixed it with a stock toe link and got it back on the track for the main.

Crossing the start/finish line on the first lap - starting the 2nd lap, I snapped an Axial Exo front universal. No doubt that was damaged in the 2nd heat when I broke the RC4WD tie rod end and just finished it off in the main. DNF for the main, but that's cool because I had so much fun watching the madness. Ended up doing turn marshal duty because it was so crazy.

Jason,
You rig is an inspiration for sure!!!

As for the front end, dump the axial universal. Plenty of discussion n the Exo boards, but the dogbones are uch stronger route. Many guys having plenty of issues with the CVDs.

It was a beautiful thing to watch in action! You tore up the 2.2 class and the terra x.

JIA's IFS was the "Prom King" this past weekend.

I see me about 10 truck lengths behind you.

You finished ahead of me. Can't win if you can't stay together. That hit in the 2nd heat put a hurtin' on the left front. I launched over the ramp, came down hard on the left front and kept going. Steering was off so it was a challenge to turn. The left front toe link (rod end) came loose (sheared the shaft) on the bench while I was re-centering the servo arm. Almost positive that I cracked the Axial universal on that jump and finished it off when I did that same exact launch and landing on the first lap of the main. Came down hard on the left front.

That's Parker's Terra-X track for this event. Just an all-out dash for the finish. Run or get run over.

Lots of laughter from drivers as well as spectators.

Oh, there were three of my IFS builds in the 2.2 Terra-X. Mine, DTP's, and RusT808's.

I DNF'd, but DTP and RusT808 took 1st and 2nd.

I might be biased, but I like my build much better. I like the Ultra4 look over the stock Wraith chassis.

Video will come. I just need time.

I may or may not have, but probably did post there with a link to this thread.
Someone at axial is a hater....

I also like the ultra4 fastback look better. I just picked up a spare wraith cage to turn into a wrexo cage so I don't have any down time on my only rig.
