| So let me tell you what happened. My dad (Robert) bought a brand new Dex 210 a 2wd buggy. So my friend Eric had a losi twenty two. we are making a track down here with carpet and wood jumps. Ok i was driving Eric's car and just from going down the front straight no crashes or pipe hits the front arm just snaps out of no where. day after i was driving my dads Dex 210. jumped a ok sized table top jump and landed butter smooth and the front right hub just snap's in 2 places and gets violently thrown off the ramp. Today i was driving it again and i made one tiny little mess up off the jump and it comes up short and simply falls. NOTHING hard no hard landing or nothing. The rear shock tower broke.
So like I said NEVER again will i drive a 2wd buggy | |

| Ok let me set my son straight and clear up some things for you gents. My 210 is on rails on the carpet track. Well my son probably hating on me for being good with my setups. So he goes and breaks my car so i cant make him look bad anymore when were racing together. Im use to it by now. Another example was last saturday at SW in the 1/8th scale buggy how my son jacked me right before the straight of way. He was probably just mad I was keeping up with a buggy I havent raced in like 6 months. Just remember when your hated your doing something right.. | |

| Great to see that you guys are competitive with each other. Not only does it make for good entertainment, but it also adds up to good racing and good clean fun You both are great competitors and I truly enjoy your company on and off the track. People like you make this sport what it is, and to me that's what this is all about in the end - good times with great people. See you guys soon! | |

wow wow haha hold up there buddy. Yes I agree the 210 is fast untill you jump it off the jump every other lap. Also i know your just hating because I cleared the sky jump with the 210 before you did. you went to jump it and crashed then i tryed and made it 1ST try buddy. and well about last saturday yes it was close fun racing. you up front, me, geno and the other guy (sorry don't know who he was) If you did not notice (and thats not suprizing because you cant handly the power of the 8th scale E buggy) I was right up with you and when you YOU made that mistake all by your self it messed me up and of course there goes geno and he gone. Anyways the reason why you have not runned your 8th scale is becasue you could not take the beatings i was putting on you And you were the one backing away today when i was flying the 700 you got scared just like you did at the race when you saw me catching you. | |

| I should have had you guys try mine out so you could feel the difference. Xfactory car is planted as it wheelies down the straight with a 13.5 | |

| My 210 was good just didnt have the tires to get the hookup. Plus with the 8.5 I had to majorly detune the setup in the tekin ESC. Good thing is I got that setup saved in the laptop so I can do a base line slippery setup. I got some tire sauce just for clay track im gonna test that out. Tod your 2wd was hooked up!! If anyone needs to adjust there tekin on my laptop just ask me ill let ya! Me and caleb are going all in on race suits hot pink that says save the tat tas.. J/K | |
