I haven't had mine a whole day and its covered in dirt. Think I've flipped it 4 times, ran into my Jeep a couple of times and done about 40 doughnuts.

Its one sweet rig - I just need to to get some better batteries for a longer run time and bash it some more until new parts come in.

Keep those pictures. hang 'em on the wall... It'll never look like that again.

I used to clean mine after every run and all that. Now I think she's got at least three-week-old dirt in every crevice.

hey, wait a minute. Where does your antenna come out? It looks like through the roof? That's wierd, mine came out through a hole in the bed next to the body pins. Did you move it?

Did you make a new rod to replace the original one that went between the two steering levers? (bellcranks) Once you stretch the wheelbase you need to make a new one that is longer. I used 6-32 allthread on mine. At least, that's what it sounds like to me.
