Default worst crashes u have had?

yea i hate when i used to break a piece of my gt and have to wait a week to order parts.. what i did was buy on of the older GT (black tub chassie ones ) on ebay and i just use it for everypart i need. it didnt come with a motor and was very dirty so i got a great deal out of it.

Default worst crashes u have had?

today while walking down the street (and also driving my rc ) I saw a jump that led to a path...so i jumped it (with my car of course) the car must have it hit a bump in the jump right before it left the ground and it flipped and landed it some leaves and was fine...nothing broken i'm glad to say.

Don't you have an on-road car? Or am I wrong?

Well, I have had a few bad ones, but the "best" worst one was when I thought I would be cool to drive past a grandma with my little nitro burner. She was doing about 45 when I pulled up next to her then proceded to pull away. She did too, the only thing is that I ran out of range and the failsafe did just what it was suppose to do. Grandma did a hit and run that day.

lol you wanna hear funny some 5 year old kid walks up to me when i had my street force and asks if he could try it. I said he would just curb it. he said that he is really good at driving them because he has a tyco. I told him that this is alot harder to drive then a tyco. it gets better. he runs and gets his tyco. i belive it was one of those ones that can drive on both sides. He shows me how good he is at driving it. he then asks if i wanna race him. I told him that he would just loose and he called me a scardy cat. i said fine. I tell him first person to the stop sign wins. We get lined up and i say go. He takes off. I let him go for about 10 feet and launch off the line. i get in front of him and stop then let him catch up and stop again finnaly i just gunned it and won. He got mad and hit my car with his. i took his car and through it 20 feet onto the sidewalk. sounds mean but consideriong his car is worth 40 bucks and mine is worth 250 i wasnt going to take much.

Hey nitro man..

I would avoid things like that. Kids have a HUGE ego.. Avoid damage but try not to put them down.. they have a decently good memory about getting their ego hurt and he might come back and key your car or something! lol

Well heres my stort.. I just saw this on tv..not Rc stuff but quite amazing I'm sure you'll agree...
It was night.. and F-16s are taking off from an aircraft carrier..

A guy is working on last minute details on an aircraft and out of the blue some guy waves.. the pilot takes it as a GO!
He buries the throttle and the jet starts screamin..
Then the worst..
you can actually see the guy get SUCKED IN!!
Amazingly.. the pilot is given orders to cut the engine and the maintenance guy escapes with only "minor injuries"

Amazing eh? I wouldnt believe it myself but I saw it on tv!
Thats the most crazy thing I've seen! Almost getting suckedin by a jet putting out 18000 ft/lb of thrust!
Talk about a scary thought!

I saw it too. It wasn't an F-16. It was an A-6 Intruder. F-16's don't fly off of ships.

lol so what is hes 5 years old. if he would have broken soemthing on my car i would have poured gasoline on his and set it on fire no joke. and then i would have had him pay for the parts and probably would have just gave him one of my old radio shacks in place of his burned up tyco.

Default kids will be kids

I let my 4 year old run my ntc3. I spent more time fetching it than he did run it, but it was a good bonding experience. He now has his own NTC3 and can drive it very well. I had to start somewhere, we all did. I cant wait to see the look on the expert drivers this year when he smokes them. He said it is like a video game, and we all know how kids can be at them. Not trying to get off the tangent, but he too has had a few good ones. He is the only one that I know that could drive a car under a lawn mower. Luckily the mower was not running.
