Safety first
 

Well, I just got out of the E.R. I got 16 stitches and a fractured ankle. I was rammed by a 14 year old who was trying out his very first RC car, a 3.3 Jato! Parents, please, start your kids with something more suitable. And also, don't wash pain meds down with a beer. I'm still in a fog.

wow, what a noob:005: ouch dude you alright?

Yeah, Mike. I'll be okay. My wife is a nurse and can handle wound care. She still chewed me out for my stupid hobby. Last year it was a piece of carbon blade in my arm from one of my RC helicopters crashing. Anybody else get hurt from an RC incident? Or am I the only klutzy loser?

well, i've seen this dude with a savy jumping.
he stood behind the ramp.
going 45 or even 50 kph he jumped into himself. hahaha:005:
hope you heel good!:027:

Ouch!

those 3.3 jato's are no toys..

ridiculous he was driving one and apparently he didn't know what he was doing.

OUCH! That sounds seriously painful.

and a heli rotor in the arm? Yikes!

I feel bad for you. :002:

Not to sound insensitive but you need to learn to jump quicker!...there will always be noob in this sport and many lack the driving skills to handle ANYTHING over 25mph. My 12 yr old stepson included.

Best wishes for a speedy & complete recovery! :027:

Well, I can't say too much. I hit Mandie a couple of weekends ago pretty good. Broke my RPM bumper on my 3.3 Jato. She got hurt pretty bad, no stitches though, but one hell of an egg on her leg! She still has a brown patch there by her ankle! hope you heel good man!

That's so you Newe.. Calling your RC's damage before Mandies... LOL

oops, bad habit I suppose! LOL, she always says RC first is my world! LOL, anywho, you have PM sir.

that really sucks!

i myself have never been hit by an rc car but i have hit my little bro with my all alluminum e-maxx before. he was cut up pretty bad

I hae ran into myself as well, a car was coming down the street and of course my eye was on my truck and had to turn into myself or get it ran over!

The chit hurts man!!! Real bad. Came limping in the house and Mandie looked at me and said..."hit your self again? You need to learn how to drive dude!" And of course, I had an excuse! LOL

That stinks knotted, hope you heal.

Newe - What excuse was that? ;)

lol seems that it happend more then once:005:

something like this....."but honey, the tree jumped out in front of me, or ...honey, my car just attacked me, or my favorite......it wasn't my fault, honest, I don't know wh:005: at happened!"

another...."my finger slipped off the trigger" which what i said when i hit her with the 3.3!
