Typically I can rebuild my trucks complete.... that is what I said. I live over an hour from my track and when I go, I don't plan on missing ANY race time. Now moving on to what I broke this year on the 8ight-t ZERO parts, I did however have my shock disc screws back out a couple times, and I did waste one of my JR 400oz servo's. Any DNF's or lost laps for me this year were because of the two times I had shock issues and a few times when I ran out of juice (batteries hit LVC). The two guys w/ xray's at the track had several 'parts' break.. so while you may have thought your joke was funny, it was even more funny for me to hear because I've seen the exact opposite and no truth to it. It doesn't matter though as both are great trucks and the driver is who causes the breaks, neither are bullet proof, but both are tough cookies.
