esc problems

Hey guys I was just running my pp as I normaly do and I hit a rock like I have before, then my car wouldnt move forward or backwards. The steering still works. I unpluged the esc and pluged it back in and still wont work. Is it my esc? IM CONFFUSED. if you have a clue of what it could be I would appreciate it if you commented.
thanks-dan

make sure there are no rocks in you spurgear causing the pinoin to lock, if your spur gear will not rotate it is because of a rock or your motor locked (like mine that has done it 6 times!!!) to free a motor lock try to rotate the pinoin if that dosnt work take a 9volt hook it up to the motor and wack it HARD! on something many times till it breaks free.

hope this helps eric
