The FR2 chassis? Got any links to the $35 ones?
Bad driver + long jumps + lumber wall = damaged chassis.
I was at the track showing off to one of the hobby shop workers. He couldn't believe the amount of distance I was getting without much of a head start before the jump (~20-25ft with ~6-8ft of running before the jump). So, I backed up as far as the track would allow and then took off. Started in looser dirt so I couldn't mash the throttle, but when I got into the hard pack, I mashed the throttle. However, I wasn't quite lined up and flew off the jump crooked enough to land off the track. The middle of the buggy landed right on the edge of a lumber wall. It stopped working so my bro went to pick it up and was looking it over and didn't see anything that would cause it to not work. I went over and said that maybe the fact that one of the batteries was lying about 10 feet away had something to do with that!
noobs!
Seriously, I think we may have another convert. He saw some nitros back home (Maine) but had no idea how fast and snappy BL could be. I wouldn't be surprised to see him on here in the near future.
