Broke my MERV already...
This little thing has maybe six runs on it. Two speed runs, three dirt/grass bashings, and this last one. Drove it off the roof of some sheds on the property (8', 9' roofs) and did some front-flips. Had a friend 'place' the truck on the roof, built up some speed, and did flips and stuff off the roof of the sheds. There's also like a small hill made of dirt, and the top is paved, but there's like a 2" solid thing of pavement at the top. When the truck hits it, it launches it into a front flip.
Anyways. Not sure what killed the wingmount/bodymount, but something did. Didn't notice it for a while after it broke, but here's some pictures of where it broke, and of a muddy truck. But, anyone know of a good wingmount/body mount that will stand up to this? http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2681/...5d6d85dd2d.jpg http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2790/...7e5cdf1198.jpg http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2697/...97933ebb96.jpg http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4026/...3f3cb81b2d.jpg http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4054/...f4e1c52589.jpg |
RPM is one of the best for durability, some say its better than aluminum cause it flexxes more and its cheaper... RPM to ME is like duct tape+aluminum foil+rubber band+epic
have fun cleaning it :D lol looks like u had fun |
So err...let me see if I understand. You are 'jumping' off a 9' roof, and also slamming into a 2" concrete barrier to do front flips?
I would suggest investing in a lot of cheap replacements, because I don't know of much out there that can withstand that kind of punishment for long. Other than that, I would suggest custom building something to dampen the impact if you insist on punishing the poor car ;) |

I'll replace things as they break, the stock chassis is pretty durable. |
