a good reason to remove the reverse shift. - 11.21.2008, 08:51 AM

well after the 4-5 packs on my V3 i went for some off-road bashing. the revo handles the rutts well i must say. however the gods werent looking down on me as i lined up a nice set of hazards for the revo to tackle. as i rounded a bend with a smallish bump under 1/4 throttle the car lets out a god awful screech then a grinding noise and then lurches forward and locks itself to the spot. i blip the throttle and sounds like someone dropped crushed rocks into the gearbox. wife gives "me the look of "cant you take your car without killling something"on her face. guess what, the reverse was engaged with no help from the tx rocker switch. i had heard warnings that the reverse gears were very weak and low and behold. i guess a combination of alot of bumps and perhaps some noisy air where i was running was to blame. FOC here i come.
