:surprised:

15 minutees to make the mess......

15 hours to clean it up....:lol:

It does look like it was fun though.

That would look real with some windscreen wiper holes in the mud, that is some really fine particled small scale mud you have there, where I live it rips great chunks out of the ground and makes models look smaller than they really are.

I'm sure you know this and said it tongue in cheek but to stop me feeling bad just in case you didn't, drove it again like that and fried something I have to say:- Mud is only insulation protecting from the sun beating down on an elephant, your electronics get hot from the inside and that same insulation will stop them shedding there heat to the cool air, so while if you temp the mud after a run it will be cooler, she stuff that matters inside the mud will be much hotter than normal.

Like a thermos flask filled with hot water; its cool on the outside, but boiling hot inside. Plus, the water in that mud could really easily short out the Plett and the battery and the MM- not something I would recommend doing again with such expensive electronics.

Wow, looked liek a lot of fun getting it this way :smile:... but have fun cleaning!! :lol:

to put it as it is if you have that much wet mud your better off cleaning before it sets otherwise its going to be a complete bastered to ge that off once it sets.

you should photoshop your picture and put the pede in with the pile of elephants and then send it in:lol:

Boy someone will have fun cleaning this mess up....lol:rofl:

Wait till it dries, then hit a skateboard ramp

Lol, the color, sharpness, and intensity is a little off, but passable...

wow. lol im gonna have to say that that is very realistic!

very good job!

Yeah! thats what i talking about :). Nice muddy car. Race with Electric in that puddle even for me is overkill.

@nativepaul
yes i know or let's say i guessed that the mud was insulating the electronics. i just put it in the elephant "analogy" because we were joking in the pit that this was our new "elephant-strategy". it wasn't that much of a problem though. when we were driving some batteries in the mud the things got coated more and more with new wet mud. i couldn't measure the temps "inside". :lol:

anyway i was a funny day. imo the cars of my fellow looked even worse but he hasn't taken any pics. nothing was fried. we always say when jumping or doing such a mud thing: if it can not take this it's not really made for "OFF"road. and those models are supposed to be offroad cars aren't they. :angel:

@brianG
thx for the pic! looks kinda cool! the pede it its natural environment....

and as for the cleaning.... as i am always short in time i just let it dry and the next weekend we drove the cars a again. most of the mud was peeling off after the first run. i brushed the esc and motor a bit with an old tooth-brush.
