Dude... I had Chinese food today and I thought my Pepsi tasted funny... Just unsettling to read that.

BTW "jokes" and "coke" don't really rhyme.

The tire worn out when I played speed 300 before. With Mamba, the tire become ballooning. I fix this with 3M Durapore tape stick inside before add the CA glue.

Such upper bumper save me a lot of $ when deeply kiss in the straight.

Here are some useful DIY not shown in the previous photo

My friends use the aluminium ring gear and the original o ring to fix the spur gear but still fail. I try the 'E' clip (from my nitro car) on both side of the long drive shaft (with balance of momentum). It is excellent.

I run it at the street also. There are little sand that may be accumulated inside the clear shrink of the mamba esc.
