Default Newbie advice from A Newb

I dont know what it is about firewood piles but I am going to have to quit doing my testing on the wood pile and stick to rocks, one tire drops into the wrong hole and it will bind up super quick and snap, I have a new piece to upgrade. I dont think I have broken one thing on the rock piles I've tackled, So point of advice is avoid the wood piles no matter how tempting they look, at least until all drive parts except the spur gear are metal.

Great advice, but once you've upgraded to metal parts, go back and show that wood pile you're not scared.
