Well out for a bit of a muck about in the snow and managed to clip the kerb while flat out top speed, snapped the wheel clean off and rolled several times:wow:.
Should be easily repairable :woot:.
:pics: see below.

It is a Tamiya Methanol (petrol) powered car and is 4wd. The kit came as a DC5 but i stuck my old Evo IV wrc body on it due to the amount of times i crash it and didn't want to destroy the dc5 body.
I will get a couple of pics of it with the nice body on soon for you all to see.

Lmfao you fooled me for a second seen the pic with a giant leaf and said wait a minute.
 
rofl :p Even at the 2nd pic I had to look twice. Then I noticed the rear wheel which has a bit of a unusual stance.
Nice one! xD

same, I was like Wtf why has that Evo got a plastic wheel, that's not strong enough surely ?!
I feel stupid now :(
 
Haha you need new rims......i got a mugen NSX, will get a pic up soon :)
 
I thought you lot would like this.

The wheel that broke was a cheap set i got as they came with nobbley tyres. I could not get a set of off road tyres to fit the oem Tamiya wheels.

If you have not got a nitro car you need to get yourself one for xmas. It is an essential part of being a piston head. They are so much fun!
