Who wants to play "Spot the WK"? It survived tons of launches off the condo (who's idea was that? ), continuous beatings from Ryan and all the ORCRC guys, and two launches off this cliff. On the third launch it pancaked in...on it's lid. After three launches off this cliff it was finally dead....the RX antenna was cut, one frame rail snapped, one shock was missing, one shock was blown, one broken body mount, and a body that was about an inch tall after the landing. The axles held up. Last edited by JasonInAugusta; 09-13-2007 at 08:46 PM. |

I still can't believe the abuse it took, driving away after the 2nd lauch was priceless!

Not from the trail ride, but here's more WK abuse. This wasn't a stock WK, either. Kris had a brushless system in this one. |

Do you think WK axles would hold up in a 12 pound super with 10 cells and a 2 horsepower outrunner? They might | |

Dez, that same WK was launched off a 40-50ft cliff 2-3 times the day prior at Potato Salad. I know video was shot at both sites. Ryan (rbgerrish) will most likely have it all on vid. |

I think, out of all the rigs at the Nats, the Wheely Kings provided the most fun and took the most abuse out of any other rig there. The Stampede off the same cliff snapped in half on the first launch. |

| The Stampede only broke the front brace, it has seen many cliff jumps befor ethis though, none of that caliber though. Plus it was rigged to begin with.
