Had a minor break with the MF...AFTER racing I was showing off and had a horrible landing and cracked the left rear tube...looked like a compound fracture lol, the shaft was purtuding out of the crack in the tube lol. Easy fix, I had picked up a few spares and the shaft wasnt bent.






Good as new...Ready for Round 2!!

nice man. first place huh! well done. its always nice to put a face to trucks on here too.

what shocks are you runn ing your truck?

so, just a suggestion. but it might be time to upgrade to some CVD's for those axles. you'd get a little more steering, and heck its just better. i dont know if you have any experience brazing but you can buy some inferno front drive shafts. and the braze the one long side together with a long dog bone. and sleeve it with some 1/4" breakline.

like this.

So even after a crappy day of racing I am still 1 and 3 in points...The MF is still tough to beat, and Megatron had a lot of issues Saturday but still managed to get enough points to stay ahead...Gonna be a great season of racing..everyone is bringing their best every race!

1st and 3rd place didnt look very "Monster", more buggy.

Yea exactly wat Ive been saying, we always have 1 or 2 guys that have to try to bend the rules so they can run their NON-monster trucks...next season I am going to make the rules even tighter, only certain vehicles will be allowed

No I don't, the track owner and the 505rc owner run the events, I do help and give advice, and for the most part they listen to me...I told them we need to make sum changes after this season like we did last season...

Megatron is looking evil

How does the TF fly? I was watching a monster truck race on YouTube from iHobby and there was a TF (superman paint job) that landed from big jumps like they were nothing, soaked it up and landed very gently.

Thanks dude.....I love the MF, it handles big jumps fine with no issues for me. I dont beat on it that hard because I race so mine is holding up great

Got the Mad Force all cleaned up, repaired and ready to go for next season....new shocks, new body and a lower stance....this truck is very strong and I put it thru a lot last season and it held together...Still need to get the rear shocks softer but it feels good.
