Well, 5 minutes into my first serious bash A/B melt down, so this is what I did.

I bashed for 25 minutes on a new set of gears and they appear to be holding up good, just a little air movement in the gear cover appears to do wonders.

I would be concerned of all the little crap that may get sucked in and out on to the gears. I think i'm gonna do a mesh mod on mine. I like the concept though.

Honestly, I haven't ran it in a good 3 weeks, if not longer. Lol But I've put maybe 4 tanks through this set of gears and they are still tight.

It's those damn Excavators, I didn't smoke any gears till I put them on! I drilled holes in my cover too but when I inspected it today, I found a couple of little pebbles embedded in the gearset.

For winter bashing, the vent kept frezing up, there it doesn't.


I amde the roll cage.


Yes, that is a side pipe, I like it. It looks food under my Asguard body. lol


I will lay a licken on it again through the week. We'll see how it works out. It sure can't be any worse. lol
