My best broken part ever...

[cunawarit]

I totalled one of my spare shocks...



Main straight right into a TM2 I am told, sadly I heard the "main straight" warning too late.

PS after inspecting it the list of carnage is:

* Another shock, the usual piston issue I suffer.
* Pinion gear broke a tooth.
* Which destroyed the spur gear.
* Servo saver seems to have spilled its guts.
* Somehow one of my front tyres has a huge cut on it.

That is one special damper I've heard similar stories on the shock shafts of the Ansmann Mad Rat, they tend to get all artistic and warp into insane shapes when physics become say... more persuasive

I must say though, that must have been quite an impact if you even broke parts in the drivetrain! I hope you can get your car patched up soon!

It wasn't the same impact The servo saver vomiting its spring was the same impact that bent the shock.

But the gears dying was a totally unexpected event even before the first heat.

Even more destruction than I thought...The top chassis plate is cracked and a camber link end broke.

WOW! Those TM2s are tough!!!!!

Yeah I have seen a madrat rip the front end off a x6 in a head on collision. Madrat continued to carry on for te rest of the race unscathed, slight makr on front bumper.

Maybe you should think about a Team C for your next purchase Gui.

now I am wonderign what would happed if two TM2's collide, probably stop the earth rotating
