Alternate video title: How to disassemble a Tamiya MF01X in 0.001 seconds! Oh boy Addam, that was one big hit! At that speed the car had no chance against an immovable object! That wheel imprint!!! 😮 Sorry that happened pal, a lot of work to get it going again but I know you will do it! All the best my friend and hope to see you back out there before long! 😎🤘
LOL! Yes! I have wrecked many times and broken many things over all my years in the hobby but I have never wrecked so badly and broken all the things at once! LOL! I may not win a top spot in speed this year but I think I have a firm grip on most destructive crash so far! I left my mark on the post but it left its mark as well! The body will carry that scar forever! I have all the parts on the way and I will get it rebuilt and back out there as soon as possible. I am going to a bigger and smoother location next time with less things to hit so maybe the 3rd time is the charm! I sure hope so!
Ooofff!!! Been there, done that, but not at 56 mph. Sorry for your loss Addam but thats what happens when you run with the GreenhawksRC Crew 😝😂😆 Looking forward to seeing the next run hopefully without any hiccups 👍
LOL! I think I one-upped James with this one! I have wrecked and broke a lot of stuff over the years but not quite this much all at once! It will be back out there as soon as I can. It will get over the 70mph mark or burn to the ground trying! LOL! My next run will be in a much larger, smoother location with less things to run into!
@cw-01creations46 Oi cheeky! I read everyone's comments you know! 😂 I wasn't the one driving your DT02..... I was on camera duties! But,I think Addam has well and truly trumped you on best speed run crash here my friend! 😂 😅 🤣 👍
Dude! That is the most destruction I've seen so far. And it happened so fast! I can't believe it! Like, EVERYTHING is toast! And the mark the wheel left in the post is absolutely crazy. WOW, what a hit! Sorry for the horrific crash, dude. That one was a doozy!
LOL! If I am not going to make it to the top in speed I may as well make the gnarliest crash! Obviously I was not planning on rebuilding the whole car but post vs car made that choice and I will get it back out there once all the parts show up. Tamiya USA is being ridiculously slow filling orders as always! It will go over 70mph or I am going to roast marshmallows over its burning ashes! I will not give up LOL!
Go hard or go home ouch man I felt your pain doing that walk to pick it up 😭.....maybe the bit without the gps went quicker lol hope it's not to bad to save somehow take care mate this is rc some really good days and some like a thumb in the bum of a brown snake 👊
I did both, went hard and went home ... with a bag of car parts! LOL! I was pretty upset walking back with a body shell full of broken stuff but I can laugh about it now. At the time I just wanted to hurl it in the woods and drive home but I kept my cool. I got all the parts on order and once they show up it will be back out for another try. I am hoping that the 3rd time is the charm. Next runs will be in a much larger, smoother and open area, less things to hit!!! Taking the good with the bad and moving on, I get to build it all over again so there is that!! LOL!! Take care mate!
It was not fun at the time but funny now. I have crashed and broke a lot of things over the years but never the whole thing before! LOL!!! Parts are on their way so it will be rebuilt as soon as possible!
" Well that could have gone better!" 😂 😅 🤣 Awesome crash Addam! That has to be the most solom walk of shame I have ever seen! A fair bit of damage there mate, many would have given up there, but glad to hear that you are going to persist...... I definitely think that thing is capable of 60mph. If at first you don't succeed,try try try again! Hope you manage to get her up and running again ready for another go buddy. Good luck mate. 😊 👍 👍 👍
I may not win the top spot for speed but I think I have a firm grip on most destructive crash in the competition at the moment! The head down walk of shame was have disappointment and half me trying to control my temper as I really wanted to pick it up and hurl it into the woods and drive home! I kept my cool, picked up the parts and came home and ordered what I needed. Sadly it is taking them entirely too long to pack and ship the parts, thinking I should have just ordered a new kit but was trying to save a few bucks! I am getting that car over 70mph or i am going to roast marshmallows over its flaming remains! LOL! I am not out yet, just delayed!
@@AddamsPlayground I feel your pain matey! You have definitely won the most destructive crash award hands down , and have made some amazing content with it to say the least! Great fighting spirit there buddy,I wish you the best of luck going forward mate. 😊 👍 👍 👍
She does make it more funny! the slow oh no was hilarious! The parts are on the way and it will be back out as soon as possible! I will get it over 70 if it kills it!
😛😛OOOOOOOOOOOOOO ADDAM YOU DID IT THIS TIME! May as well get a new kit, O boy and I was thinking I can't wait to see it on the 3s could you imagine how fast and hairy that could have been! That was a crazy crash for sure!
If I did not already have the chassis and a few other things here I would have bought a new kit. Thankfully I was able to find everything and it is all on its way. I have wrecked and broken a lot of stuff in my life but never broken all of it in one go! LOL! I I will get it rebuilt and it will go 70+ or I will burn it to the ground and roast marshmallows over its ashes HAHAHA!!!
Wow! Don’t know how I’m only seeing this run now in my feed but boy did I feel your pain when it hit! Now I understand your comment about building another one when I was watching another video. What a crash. A solid stationary object like that is not going to be forgiving. Ugh.
Yes, it did not go as I hoped out there and I am building another to go back out there and try again! There was not a ton left of useable parts off of it as the good pile and broken pile were about the same size! I did leave my mark on the post but it definitely won the fight! LOL! I am not going to give in until I get this thing going over 70mph or enjoy watching it burn to the ground! LOL
Yeah that post just laughed and I almost hurled the car in the woods and came home LOL! I kept my cool, ordered new parts and it will be back as soon as possible. I am going to a new location next time, there should be very little there to hit!!!
@AddamsPlayground I've been so wrapped up in my construction equipment and trailers I haven't even touched my speed run stuff to many projects never enough time a new location would be a good idea the MF-01X gets hard to handle at low speeds much less 50+
Yes it did, I left a mark on it but it certainly won the fight! I really wanted to find the dog bone out there as I am pretty sure it is in a U shape but it was nowhere to be found. The piles of broken and salvageable parts was getting pretty even, thankfully I had gotten a spare chassis and driveshaft already. I did have shocks on hand as well so it was not to many parts I had to order. Once they get here it gets put back together and back out for another go!
Yeah, I may not win for speed but I think I have a firm grip on most destructive crash this year! I have wrecked and broken a lot of things over the years but never anything like this! I won't lie, my first reaction to seeing it so busted up is I wanted to hurl it into the woods behind me and just leave. I think the camera being on and the lipo battery in there kept me from doing it! LOL! I have the parts on the way and it will be back out once I get it all reassembled! I will get into the 70s with it no matter what!
Ouch Addam, I completely understand why you're frustated. Its what happens when we push theses little RCs beyond its design and its purpose, its apart of the fun! take care
It is funny now, not so much when it happened but I can laugh at it now. Maybe I will get a side award for most destructive crash! LOL! Parts are on their way so I will be back in it as soon as I can!
LOL! Yes, a serious one! I have wrecked and broken a lot of things but never the whole thing at one time! LOL! I ordered parts but Tamiya USA took all week to ship them so I actually ordered a new kit on Wednesday night from Amain and it showed up this afternoon. I will be getting that built and back out for a run as soon as I can. I am going to get this thing over 70mph or watch it go up in flames trying!!
Oooooooooohhhhhhhh........... That's gonna leave a scar...... Bad luck, old mate. But I'd be signing that bollard!! Send, bend, mend. You'll be back. 😊
Yeah, I left my mark on the post and the post left it mark on the car... the post won! I have all the parts coming and will get it rebuilt as soon as I can. I will be going out to a safer place with a smoother surface and less things to hit on the next run with it!!
4:29 I'm only half way through and man do I feel for you. I'm at work , sat down , this was the first video I'm watching, but my blue tooth speaker wasn't on yet. Saw the crash , first reaction was holy crap , the speaker kicked on during the slow mo and when I heard the audio I was dieing laughing. Then the walk of shame, I was like, "Oh no, he big mad." Then I saw you toss the pieces into the car, and I was back to feeling really bad. Quite the video so far!
LOL! I was pretty mad and when I saw how mangled it was my first thought was to hurl it into the woods and just go home. Having the came on me and it having the lipo battery in there stopped me from doing it. I have the parts on the way and as soon as I can get it all put bac together I will be out for another try. Next time will be in a smoother and more wide open area to run so fingers crossed the destruction is all done for! I am glad the oh no part got you laughing, I can laugh now but at the time I was far from laughing! I may not win for speed this year but I think I have a frim grip on most destructive crash so far! LOL!
Yes it was! I have broken a lot of stuff over the years but not that much at one time! It will be back out there as soon as I can get something together!! I will get it to go over 70mph or it will go up in flames trying!
LOL! I can't be as fast as you guys so I have to do something to be special! LOL! I have wrecked and broken a lot of things in all my years but never wrecked and broke all the things at one time! LOL! The triple Lindy made me snort-laugh!
Oich! That was painful to watch Addam. I could totally understand your frustration. Shit happens in this hobby every now and then. At least that cool body survived.👌😅
Yeah, that was not what I had planned to do that morning! I may not win top spot for speed but I think I may have the most devastating crash award on lock! Hopefully it will get rebuilt this weekend and I can get back out for another shot very soon. Rain is on its way and I am dreadfully late getting a legit run on the books!
Yes, not the video I wanted to make but it is a risk of going fast I guess. I am glad my ankle was not involved like Pete's last run! That looked like it hurt a lot!! I did love the super slow ooohhhh nnnoooo!!!
That was a hard hit. The aftermath is always a pain to repair and mentally you're thinking if I would've only done this or that. But, you will get it together and get it out there again. Good luck.
Yeah i keep wishing I had just yanked the wheel and tumbled it across the pavement. I sure it would have been a bit beat up but probably in a bit better shape than it is now! LOL! It have parts coming and it will be back together as soon as I can get everything here. It will go over 70 or it goes up in flames!!!
Sorry for your loss Addam. I did the same thing back in the day with an F201, probably going just as fast. I was able to rebuild it but it never ran the same. Best of luck with the repair bud!
I am hopeful since most of the parts getting reused are from the front it should be ok. It broke something on ever section of the multi piece chassis so all of that is being replaced so I think it should be ok. If not I am gonna send it wonky!!! I was pretty mad when it happened but I can laugh at it now. Hearing the slow ohhhh noooo a few times editing the video made me laugh it off!
Yeah, it went kind of opposite of the plans but I can now say I have done that. I am very hopeful it is the last time I will for sure! I left my mark on the post but it won for sure LOL! The parts are on the way and I will get it put back together and back out as soon as possible!
It did not go as planned! I had intended on 60+ with the 2s pack and hopefully 70+ on the 3s but we went from 56 to 0 way to quickly! LOL! I have the parts coming and it will be back out for another run as soon as I can. I do have some more stuff lined up for you all between now and then so there will be other stuff going on besides this rebuild.
Yes! I have wrecked and broken a lot of stuff over the years but never that much, that quickly! The parts needed have been ordered and once here it will get rebuilt and back out for another run! It will go 70mph or burst into flames trying!
I was mad when it happened but I can laugh at it now. I have crashed a lot and broken untold amounts of part over the years but never this much all at once and so violently! It was literally the body shell and the servo wire holding the two halves together! I may not win first place in speed but I think I got a firm grasp on the most destructive crash! It will be back and it will go 70+mph or go up in flames trying!
It was a quick but epically total destruction crash! I knew I broke the chassis but every section of it was broken! Like they say, if you are going to do something, do it the best that you can! I don't think I could have broken more on it if I tried! LOL!! Parts will be here soon and it will be back out as quick as possible Take care Trey!
Ohhhhhh nooooooo!🥺😳 Congratulations on the most destructive crash in the history of Poor Boys Speed Run Challenge 🏁🏆, I wonder if Big Fil's got a prize for that carnage. We're so sorry for you brother!. That's a 90 km/h impact and continued to travel only a couple of feet post impact and Ingrid thinks it spun atleast 9 times. WOW that was spectacular but sad. You took it like a true champion considering the amount of damage. We're glad you have all the bits to fix it, we straight away thought that's it he's out of the challenge, we've heard parts a scarce because of the challenge. Sorry if we've missed commenting recently, we've had things happen and struggling to keep up and keep track but we're thinking of you. Hi to Gina from Ingrid and I please. Take care mate👍🦘🇦🇺
It was not how I had planned out the morning but it was the most spectacular crash I have witnessed in person! It went from 56 to nothing immediately! I may not win the fastest speed but I think I have a firm grip on most devastating crash so far. I won't lie, I wanted to hurl it into the woods and just drive home. I kept my cool, picked up the pieces and got all the parts needed to rebuild it on order. I will get this thing over 70mph or I will set it on fire and roast marshmallows over its ashes LOL! No worries, life gets busy and the videos will be here when you guys get time. I am perpetually behind and never get to watch off them that come up on my subscription list, just not enough time in the day! I will tell Gina you guys said hi and give Ingrid a hug from me!
@@AddamsPlayground It'd be interesting to calculate the impact g force. Yes it's definitely the best worst RC crash we've seen lol. Thanks Addam hugs straight back to you👩☺️. We only manage to follow I think 5 channels these days and am struggling with that lately, we use to follow and watch 20 or 30. Oh well that's life lol
First congrats on the 56👍. It should count the GPS stayed in Hope you can repair it. Seeing all these damaged parts it might be most economic to buy a new kit
The GPS did come out, granted it didn't go any further than the rest of the pieces but it did come out. I am not worried, I have parts on the way and it will be back out there. Thankfully I had some of the parts here that are needed so the list of parts I needed was not too long. I am not going to be satisfied unless it goes over 70 or bursts into flames trying!
2.06 I totally feel you, man... There's highs and lows on speedruns, you just hit rock bottom, my friend... I'm bummed for you, that's a lot of extra work to get back at it... Happy the body made it almost unscathed, and also happy it is you this happened to, you can afford it and you have the determination to perservere, some others might be worse off in a situation like this. And of course happy the crash happened on that side of the road, that you didn't get hurt. The MF chassis is so damned nervous, I've seen in so many videos, people need to steer all the time, accidents are bound to happen... Just happy it was only material damage...
Thanks Mads, it could have been a lot worse and I could have Pete Wylied myself or my wife with it. I may not wind first place in speed but I think I have a firm grip on the most gnarly crash so far! I am still not 100% sure what happened, it looked a lot different in video than I remember seeing it when driving but in the end it ended poorly and I will get it rebuilt! I have all the parts I need on the way and will be back out to a larger and hopefully safer spot to run next time!
Yeah it was not how I had planned the morning to go that is for sure. I have stuff on the way to get it fixed/replaced. Tamiya USA is terrible about shipping things with any sense of urgency so I broke down and ordered a new kit the should be here this weekend (fingers crossed). I will get it built and back out there as soon as I can!
LOL! I would have liked to have gotten at least on clean (documented) pass with it before splattering it all over the road! The DT02 went so much better than this one has LOL! I can laugh now but I really wanted to hurl the thing in the woods behind me and go home!! Parts are on their way and I will be back in it as soon as I can!!
As we say over here in Scotland, "That's a dull yin mate" I'm glad that the body survived somewhat intact 👍 I still haven't managed to post an official time in the brushed category yet because of broken rear lower arm issues, beetle body tearing apart and aftermarket wheels exploding at the slightest touch. Ill be back out today to try and film one run where everything goes ok and be done with it!! Lol
It did not go to plan that is for sure. These are some finicky and twitchy little things to try and get going fast! I have some of the parts here and the rest are on the way so as soon as I can get it all reassemble d it will be back out for another go. Next time will be at a larger and smoother location so less things to hit or cause issues. Best of luck with yours as well, I hope the both of us are done with tearing things up!
Yeah it was not how I had hoped it would go at all! The body and the servo wire were the only thing keeping it kind of in one piece! Parts are on the way and I will get it back out there for another go as soon as I can! I will get a good clean run in or it gets set on fire LOL and thrown off a cliff. Either way it will be a good video next time! LOL!!
I left my mark for sure! I may not get the fastest speed but I may get the title for quickest disassembly! I have the parts on order and will get back out there as soon as I can. Well not to this spot, but a more open and safer spot I hope!
Sorry about the crash. That Mazda body looks awesome. For the ding or dent, try using a kitchen torch or anything that provide pin point heat will usually return to plastic to normal or normal-ish. For kitchen torch, I heat it with just 1 or 2 clicks of heat and it restore and wait and repeat if necessary. Practice on spares 1st.
I can laugh at it now but when I picked it up and saw it was in multiple pieces my first thought was to hurl it into the woods behind me and just go home! LOL! the parts are on order and it will be back as soon as I can get it all repaired. The body will get a little shoe-goo in the back to fix the split but I am going to rock the scars of everything else! It earned them!
Oh god Addam you have certainly beaten me in terms of amount of damage caused to an MF-01X in a crash 😬 This is a tricky chassis at speed for sure. It is gutting when this sort of thing happens but I know you'll be back when you get all the bits. Best wishes mate 😁👍👍
I thought you had a handle on the most carnage but I may have stolen that from you. Thankfully it hit the post and not my ankle, not sure I would have walked away from that! I have parts coming and it will get fully rebuilt and back out there for another go. It is going to go 70+ or burst into flames trying. I'll bring the marshmallows with me next time just in case!
Yeah, not the result I was looking for out there! I should be able to get it rebuilt this weekend, supposedly the new kit will arrive on Saturday. I had originally ordered just the parts I needed but Tamiya USA is about the slowest place in the world to get things from. Ordered on Sunday and still have not shipped out. Very disappointed in them but I have another kit coming in and should be here Saturday. This is getting to be a costly adventure doing these speed runs! I will get it to over 70mph or kill it trying!
@@AddamsPlayground im sure you will get there, sadly had to sit this one out 😭 very little time to get runs in, crap weather and couldnt really afford to buy one. So many big vintage events to pay for. Its not cheap going to all these events. Will be as bad next year aswell 😂
Yes, rapid deconstruction at its finest! I almost bought a new one but found everything I needed. My wife does know how to add some humor into the crashes by accident! Take care Pete!
Yeah it did not go as planned but the parts are ordered and I will get it back together as quick as I can! Heading to a better and safer location to run next time! LOL!
I left my mark out there on the post but it definitely won the fight! It will get rebuilt and back out for another run. I am going to get it over 70mph or kill it trying! Came really close this time 50% dead this time around! LOL
Ouch… you really did a number on that car Addam 😢. It might be cheaper to source another kit and just salvage parts off the wreck, at least then you will have a few spare parts if any other solid objects jump out in front of you again.
Thankfully I already had the chassis parts so the others I had to source from a few place but I got everything I need on its way. I almost broke down and got another kit but I know I would end up buying all the parts later and end up with two which is not terrible but not the most cost effective thing! LOL! I will be going out to a different location with a much smoother surface and less things to hit for the next outing with it! I am going to get a clean official pass wit this thing!!!
Gutted for you Addam, such a shame it was on the first pass as well. As others have said a new or even a second hand built kit may be more cost effective. At least in the Uk the Beetle kit can be had new for a little over £120. Hope you can get back up and running before the end!
Yeah it did not go as well as I had hoped LOL! If I did not already have the chassis set and driveshaft here than I would have ordered a new kit. Since I had that stuff already I went ahead and just got the parts. I know myself and I would have ended up just buying the parts later one and rebuilding it and end with two and spending way more money! I have everything on the way and as soon as it all shows up I get it rebuilt and back out for another go. Next time is in a much larger and wide open area that is also smoother so hopefully no more accidents! It will go over 70mph or I am going to set it on fire and roast marshmallows over it! LOL!
The body is dinged up but loves to make another run. The rest of it was a total mess! It was a very "internally conversational" walk of shame for sure. Mostly talking myself out of hurling it into the woods and driving home without it! LOL! I kept my cool, scooped up the pieces and came home and ordered what I needed to get it rebuilt. I will find out if that was a good decision or not on the next run I guess! LOL!
Maybe I will get awarded most gnarly crash in the comp?!?! I hope mine is the worst, I don't want to see any worse than that!! Parts are on the way and I will be back in it as soon as I can.
Fortunately I never had a crash like that, the best thing is that your nice body is still there with really minor damages that to me are quite nice, like my Alfa 155 that flow down from the barn and now has some wrinkle on the back. The frame no problem just spare and work! Ciao
Yes, all the car can be rebuilt but the body is the one of a kind piece. It has some character now for sure and it will be back out for another run as soon as I can get it all rebuilt!
Hey Addam I know how you feel on this one. A one run and done, sorry that happened to you and the MF-01x at least the body is still in great shape and can be used on the next chassis. I will say that the chassis is pretty tough, seems like it broke where most of the weight was placed. I'm pretty sure you could have hit that 60mph mark. I know that you are not done and we will see it back out soon (hopefully) Again sorry for the mishap, take care and best wishes to you and the family.
It was definitely not the morning I had planned to have but if the car was the only loss then it is fine. Much better than hitting on of us at that speed! It was on its way to 60+ when it turned into the worst transformer ever! It will be back and I will get to over 70 in the next runs with it. If I am rebuilding it all might as well stick the fastest stuff in there and let it rip! Take care Al and have a great week!
Quicker probably. I already had the chassis parts, driveshaft and shocks here. Just 3 or 4 things I had to order but they are taking forever to ship. Sadly my LHS only has TT02 kits in stock so no luck there either!
Yeah it did not go as planned! it does have the mini CVAs on it. When the top ripped off the bladder was still intact so no oil came out. The road is old and is not the smoothest so when I got towards the edge and not in the middle where I wanted it to be, it got into the rougher pavement and was not happy. The next outing will be at a much smother area with less things to hit! I am getting ready to go down now and start the new build.
I may not win a top spot in speed but i think I have a firm grip on most devastating crash so far! LOL! It will be rebuilt and be back out as soon as can get all the stuff in for it.
Yeah, did not go to plan but it will be back out there for another attempt as soon as i get it all back together! It will get over 70mph or go up in flames trying!
LOL! Yeah it did not go to plan! I have gotten the replacement built and will be getting out with it tomorrow morning for hopefully a nice clean run with it! The new spot does not have a long row of big posts to run into!
Yeah the expensive bit survived and the parts are on their way here. Not exactly as I had hoped it would go. I did get to come home and run the 3s battery in one of the other kits here so that helped take my mind off the pile of trashed parts!! LOL!
It was odd I was trying to gently correct it and it just kept drifting over to its doom. I was quite impressed the whole wheel and wheel nut was imprinted on the post, talk about leaving your mark! Parts are on their way and I will get it back together as soon as I can! I think it will be more like the $65 man rebuild but it will be back! LOL!
Yeah, it is not much fun breaking things and tearing up the body. I purposely got a runner body as i knew this one was going to get banged up by the end of the challenge, wasn't expecting this but it survived! Thankfully the servo is one of the super cheap 4 for $20 ones I have a few of sitting here already. The body and the servo wire was the only thing left holding the front and back halves together!
LOL!!! Yes, I think it did not pass the side impact test. There were flying colors but it was from the parts flaying off of it! LOL!! Yes, the cars parts are not too bad, the motor and ESC are the expensive bits! Parts are on the way and it will be back out as soon as I can get it stuck back together!
Damn bro, that thing got annihilated. That's tough. At least you kept your cool. Hey, 56 mph on a 2S battery is pretty cool. You wanna hear a crazy idea? No? Well I'm gonna say it anyway. What if you put the chassis and all the plastic parts in a 3D printer program, sent it off to PCB Way and had the whole thing made of 7075 aluminum or some other crazy material? Yo! How cool would that be? Everything, all the gears, everything. That would be a one of for sure. One can dream, right? It would definitely make a cool video. Who knows how much that would cost? Anyway, you'll get 'em next time! Love the videos, man!
I am still not sure what happened but it ended poorly. It just made 58 on the new chassis and I have one more run to make on 3s to try and hit my goal of 70.
I was quite angry when it happened but I can laugh at it now! The parts have been ordered and once here I will get it all reassembled and back out for another run. Next time at a larger and smoother location with less things to possibly hit!!
It looks like you just broke the thing at the end of the drive shaft.Looks like the drive shaft's fine. At least didn't snap I can't believe you bent that shaft though.
Oh the drive shaft it bent badly. It is bent right where it goes into the side cover are and it wobbles all over the place. I mean it went from 56 to 0 in an instant, I am surprised the pile of useable parts was as big as it was!
I may not be the fastest speed but I think I got the fastest disassembly title so far! I can laugh now but I really wanted to hurl it into the woods behind me and just go home LOL! The parts are on the way and I will be getting it back together as soon as possible! My wife is good at adding in a bit of humor to the crashes!
@AddamsPlayground lol yeah l can see why you felt mad! You came back with your car literally in two bits!😫 Epic crash though!🙌 Hopefully you can sort it without too much cost!
Alternate video title: How to disassemble a Tamiya MF01X in 0.001 seconds!
Oh boy Addam, that was one big hit! At that speed the car had no chance against an immovable object! That wheel imprint!!! 😮
Sorry that happened pal, a lot of work to get it going again but I know you will do it! All the best my friend and hope to see you back out there before long! 😎🤘
As unlucky Alf would say on the Fast show .oh Bugger !😂😂😂
@@craigpimlott204 Haha, how true! 😂😂
LOL! Yes! I have wrecked many times and broken many things over all my years in the hobby but I have never wrecked so badly and broken all the things at once! LOL! I may not win a top spot in speed this year but I think I have a firm grip on most destructive crash so far! I left my mark on the post but it left its mark as well! The body will carry that scar forever! I have all the parts on the way and I will get it rebuilt and back out there as soon as possible. I am going to a bigger and smoother location next time with less things to hit so maybe the 3rd time is the charm! I sure hope so!
Ooofff!!!
Been there, done that, but not at 56 mph.
Sorry for your loss Addam but thats what happens when you run with the GreenhawksRC Crew 😝😂😆
Looking forward to seeing the next run hopefully without any hiccups 👍
LOL! I think I one-upped James with this one! I have wrecked and broke a lot of stuff over the years but not quite this much all at once! It will be back out there as soon as I can. It will get over the 70mph mark or burn to the ground trying! LOL! My next run will be in a much larger, smoother location with less things to run into!
@cw-01creations46
Oi cheeky!
I read everyone's comments you know! 😂
I wasn't the one driving your DT02.....
I was on camera duties!
But,I think Addam has well and truly trumped you on best speed run crash here my friend! 😂 😅 🤣 👍
Dude! That is the most destruction I've seen so far. And it happened so fast! I can't believe it! Like, EVERYTHING is toast! And the mark the wheel left in the post is absolutely crazy. WOW, what a hit! Sorry for the horrific crash, dude. That one was a doozy!
LOL! If I am not going to make it to the top in speed I may as well make the gnarliest crash! Obviously I was not planning on rebuilding the whole car but post vs car made that choice and I will get it back out there once all the parts show up. Tamiya USA is being ridiculously slow filling orders as always! It will go over 70mph or I am going to roast marshmallows over its burning ashes! I will not give up LOL!
@@AddamsPlayground hahaha, that's the true speed run spirit right there! 😅
Go hard or go home ouch man I felt your pain doing that walk to pick it up 😭.....maybe the bit without the gps went quicker lol hope it's not to bad to save somehow take care mate this is rc some really good days and some like a thumb in the bum of a brown snake 👊
I did both, went hard and went home ... with a bag of car parts! LOL! I was pretty upset walking back with a body shell full of broken stuff but I can laugh about it now. At the time I just wanted to hurl it in the woods and drive home but I kept my cool. I got all the parts on order and once they show up it will be back out for another try. I am hoping that the 3rd time is the charm. Next runs will be in a much larger, smoother and open area, less things to hit!!! Taking the good with the bad and moving on, I get to build it all over again so there is that!! LOL!! Take care mate!
And the winner of the most carnage goes to….
Good speed, sorry about the crash. That was pretty gnarly.
It was not fun at the time but funny now. I have crashed and broke a lot of things over the years but never the whole thing before! LOL!!! Parts are on their way so it will be rebuilt as soon as possible!
Addam, I visited the fence post today and placed some beautiful flowers there. My family sends its condolences. Take care Addam.
LOL! All good, I appreciate it! I may not win for being the fastest speed but I think I have a firm grip on the fastest disassembly award!
" Well that could have gone better!" 😂 😅 🤣
Awesome crash Addam!
That has to be the most solom walk of shame I have ever seen!
A fair bit of damage there mate, many would have given up there, but glad to hear that you are going to persist...... I definitely think that thing is capable of 60mph.
If at first you don't succeed,try try try again!
Hope you manage to get her up and running again ready for another go buddy.
Good luck mate. 😊 👍 👍 👍
I may not win the top spot for speed but I think I have a firm grip on most destructive crash in the competition at the moment! The head down walk of shame was have disappointment and half me trying to control my temper as I really wanted to pick it up and hurl it into the woods and drive home! I kept my cool, picked up the parts and came home and ordered what I needed. Sadly it is taking them entirely too long to pack and ship the parts, thinking I should have just ordered a new kit but was trying to save a few bucks! I am getting that car over 70mph or i am going to roast marshmallows over its flaming remains! LOL! I am not out yet, just delayed!
@@AddamsPlayground
I feel your pain matey!
You have definitely won the most destructive crash award hands down , and have made some amazing content with it to say the least!
Great fighting spirit there buddy,I wish you the best of luck going forward mate. 😊 👍 👍 👍
Loved your wifes comentary good luck on the rebuild!
She does make it more funny! the slow oh no was hilarious! The parts are on the way and it will be back out as soon as possible! I will get it over 70 if it kills it!
@@AddamsPlayground 🤣🤣good luck 👍
1:46 ouchhh
Bad Lucky!
Return to the table😊
Yeah, that did not go as planned but it will get rebuilt and be back out for another try as soon as I can!
😛😛OOOOOOOOOOOOOO ADDAM YOU DID IT THIS TIME! May as well get a new kit, O boy and I was thinking I can't wait to see it on the 3s could you imagine how fast and hairy that could have been! That was a crazy crash for sure!
If I did not already have the chassis and a few other things here I would have bought a new kit. Thankfully I was able to find everything and it is all on its way. I have wrecked and broken a lot of stuff in my life but never broken all of it in one go! LOL! I I will get it rebuilt and it will go 70+ or I will burn it to the ground and roast marshmallows over its ashes HAHAHA!!!
@@AddamsPlayground 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Wow! Don’t know how I’m only seeing this run now in my feed but boy did I feel your pain when it hit! Now I understand your comment about building another one when I was watching another video. What a crash. A solid stationary object like that is not going to be forgiving. Ugh.
Yes, it did not go as I hoped out there and I am building another to go back out there and try again! There was not a ton left of useable parts off of it as the good pile and broken pile were about the same size! I did leave my mark on the post but it definitely won the fight! LOL! I am not going to give in until I get this thing going over 70mph or enjoy watching it burn to the ground! LOL
Damn that was a solid hit bummer good call on ordering all the spare chassis parts before the challenge 56bis moving though
Yeah that post just laughed and I almost hurled the car in the woods and came home LOL! I kept my cool, ordered new parts and it will be back as soon as possible. I am going to a new location next time, there should be very little there to hit!!!
@AddamsPlayground I've been so wrapped up in my construction equipment and trailers I haven't even touched my speed run stuff to many projects never enough time a new location would be a good idea the MF-01X gets hard to handle at low speeds much less 50+
Ouch!! Fence post wins. Epic crash though. The damage list at your desk really drives it home. 😬
Yes it did, I left a mark on it but it certainly won the fight! I really wanted to find the dog bone out there as I am pretty sure it is in a U shape but it was nowhere to be found. The piles of broken and salvageable parts was getting pretty even, thankfully I had gotten a spare chassis and driveshaft already. I did have shocks on hand as well so it was not to many parts I had to order. Once they get here it gets put back together and back out for another go!
Holy smokes that car just completely tore apart!😮😬
56 was pretty dang good! I give you credit for keeping at it after that kind of destruction!👍😊
Yeah, I may not win for speed but I think I have a firm grip on most destructive crash this year! I have wrecked and broken a lot of things over the years but never anything like this! I won't lie, my first reaction to seeing it so busted up is I wanted to hurl it into the woods behind me and just leave. I think the camera being on and the lipo battery in there kept me from doing it! LOL! I have the parts on the way and it will be back out once I get it all reassembled! I will get into the 70s with it no matter what!
Ouch Addam, I completely understand why you're frustated. Its what happens when we push theses little RCs beyond its design and its purpose, its apart of the fun! take care
It is funny now, not so much when it happened but I can laugh at it now. Maybe I will get a side award for most destructive crash! LOL! Parts are on their way so I will be back in it as soon as I can!
Holy cow Addam that car took a beating on this outting
LOL! Yes, a serious one! I have wrecked and broken a lot of things but never the whole thing at one time! LOL! I ordered parts but Tamiya USA took all week to ship them so I actually ordered a new kit on Wednesday night from Amain and it showed up this afternoon. I will be getting that built and back out for a run as soon as I can. I am going to get this thing over 70mph or watch it go up in flames trying!!
Oooooooooohhhhhhhh...........
That's gonna leave a scar......
Bad luck, old mate. But I'd be signing that bollard!!
Send, bend, mend. You'll be back. 😊
Yeah, I left my mark on the post and the post left it mark on the car... the post won! I have all the parts coming and will get it rebuilt as soon as I can. I will be going out to a safer place with a smoother surface and less things to hit on the next run with it!!
4:29 I'm only half way through and man do I feel for you. I'm at work , sat down , this was the first video I'm watching, but my blue tooth speaker wasn't on yet. Saw the crash , first reaction was holy crap , the speaker kicked on during the slow mo and when I heard the audio I was dieing laughing. Then the walk of shame, I was like, "Oh no, he big mad." Then I saw you toss the pieces into the car, and I was back to feeling really bad.
Quite the video so far!
LOL! I was pretty mad and when I saw how mangled it was my first thought was to hurl it into the woods and just go home. Having the came on me and it having the lipo battery in there stopped me from doing it. I have the parts on the way and as soon as I can get it all put bac together I will be out for another try. Next time will be in a smoother and more wide open area to run so fingers crossed the destruction is all done for! I am glad the oh no part got you laughing, I can laugh now but at the time I was far from laughing! I may not win for speed this year but I think I have a frim grip on most destructive crash so far! LOL!
@AddamsPlayground absolutely, crash of the year!
🤦🤦🤦 Man that was a hard hit 😭 hope you get it fixed up quick and back out 💪
Yes it was! I have broken a lot of stuff over the years but not that much at one time! It will be back out there as soon as I can get something together!! I will get it to go over 70mph or it will go up in flames trying!
Show off. I can't believe you completed the triple Lindy
LOL! I can't be as fast as you guys so I have to do something to be special! LOL! I have wrecked and broken a lot of things in all my years but never wrecked and broke all the things at one time! LOL! The triple Lindy made me snort-laugh!
Oich! That was painful to watch Addam. I could totally understand your frustration. Shit happens in this hobby every now and then. At least that cool body survived.👌😅
Yeah, that was not what I had planned to do that morning! I may not win top spot for speed but I think I may have the most devastating crash award on lock! Hopefully it will get rebuilt this weekend and I can get back out for another shot very soon. Rain is on its way and I am dreadfully late getting a legit run on the books!
@@AddamsPlayground Best crash award for sure.😂 All the best and good luck for the next run!👍
Oh man that was a big one 💥
You and Pete W have now broken chassis on camera at high speeds 😮
Loved your wife's comments 😆
Yes, not the video I wanted to make but it is a risk of going fast I guess. I am glad my ankle was not involved like Pete's last run! That looked like it hurt a lot!! I did love the super slow ooohhhh nnnoooo!!!
That was a hard hit. The aftermath is always a pain to repair and mentally you're thinking if I would've only done this or that. But, you will get it together and get it out there again. Good luck.
Yeah i keep wishing I had just yanked the wheel and tumbled it across the pavement. I sure it would have been a bit beat up but probably in a bit better shape than it is now! LOL! It have parts coming and it will be back together as soon as I can get everything here. It will go over 70 or it goes up in flames!!!
Sorry for your loss Addam. I did the same thing back in the day with an F201, probably going just as fast. I was able to rebuild it but it never ran the same. Best of luck with the repair bud!
I am hopeful since most of the parts getting reused are from the front it should be ok. It broke something on ever section of the multi piece chassis so all of that is being replaced so I think it should be ok. If not I am gonna send it wonky!!! I was pretty mad when it happened but I can laugh at it now. Hearing the slow ohhhh noooo a few times editing the video made me laugh it off!
Oh no Addam! I am sorry about your crash. I can’t believe the wheel left an impression in the post! I’m sure you’ll get it back soon. 👍
Yeah, it went kind of opposite of the plans but I can now say I have done that. I am very hopeful it is the last time I will for sure! I left my mark on the post but it won for sure LOL! The parts are on the way and I will get it put back together and back out as soon as possible!
56! The take away. Yes pretty epic crash indeed. wow. another project now? Rock on dude!!
It did not go as planned! I had intended on 60+ with the 2s pack and hopefully 70+ on the 3s but we went from 56 to 0 way to quickly! LOL! I have the parts coming and it will be back out for another run as soon as I can. I do have some more stuff lined up for you all between now and then so there will be other stuff going on besides this rebuild.
blimey and crikey that was a bit of a wallop . bad luck mate 😢
Yes! I have wrecked and broken a lot of stuff over the years but never that much, that quickly! The parts needed have been ordered and once here it will get rebuilt and back out for another run! It will go 70mph or burst into flames trying!
Ouch!! Dude that was one heck of a crash man! I am glad the body was fine dude. This is a reminder to us all that speed runs does equal epic fails 🙁
I was mad when it happened but I can laugh at it now. I have crashed a lot and broken untold amounts of part over the years but never this much all at once and so violently! It was literally the body shell and the servo wire holding the two halves together! I may not win first place in speed but I think I got a firm grasp on the most destructive crash! It will be back and it will go 70+mph or go up in flames trying!
@@AddamsPlayground yes mate!! That is the spirit 🙌🏻 You looked fuming dude but we have all been there dude
Dang! That takes the prize for the most gnarly crash. 🤕 You need the cheery music Brice uses for the walks of shame.
It was a quick but epically total destruction crash! I knew I broke the chassis but every section of it was broken! Like they say, if you are going to do something, do it the best that you can! I don't think I could have broken more on it if I tried! LOL!! Parts will be here soon and it will be back out as quick as possible Take care Trey!
Ohhhhhh nooooooo!🥺😳 Congratulations on the most destructive crash in the history of Poor Boys Speed Run Challenge 🏁🏆, I wonder if Big Fil's got a prize for that carnage. We're so sorry for you brother!.
That's a 90 km/h impact and continued to travel only a couple of feet post impact and Ingrid thinks it spun atleast 9 times. WOW that was spectacular but sad. You took it like a true champion considering the amount of damage. We're glad you have all the bits to fix it, we straight away thought that's it he's out of the challenge, we've heard parts a scarce because of the challenge.
Sorry if we've missed commenting recently, we've had things happen and struggling to keep up and keep track but we're thinking of you. Hi to Gina from Ingrid and I please. Take care mate👍🦘🇦🇺
It was not how I had planned out the morning but it was the most spectacular crash I have witnessed in person! It went from 56 to nothing immediately! I may not win the fastest speed but I think I have a firm grip on most devastating crash so far.
I won't lie, I wanted to hurl it into the woods and just drive home. I kept my cool, picked up the pieces and got all the parts needed to rebuild it on order. I will get this thing over 70mph or I will set it on fire and roast marshmallows over its ashes LOL!
No worries, life gets busy and the videos will be here when you guys get time. I am perpetually behind and never get to watch off them that come up on my subscription list, just not enough time in the day! I will tell Gina you guys said hi and give Ingrid a hug from me!
@@AddamsPlayground
It'd be interesting to calculate the impact g force. Yes it's definitely the best worst RC crash we've seen lol. Thanks Addam hugs straight back to you👩☺️. We only manage to follow I think 5 channels these days and am struggling with that lately, we use to follow and watch 20 or 30. Oh well that's life lol
First congrats on the 56👍. It should count the GPS stayed in
Hope you can repair it. Seeing all these damaged parts it might be most economic to buy a new kit
The GPS did come out, granted it didn't go any further than the rest of the pieces but it did come out. I am not worried, I have parts on the way and it will be back out there. Thankfully I had some of the parts here that are needed so the list of parts I needed was not too long. I am not going to be satisfied unless it goes over 70 or bursts into flames trying!
@@AddamsPlayground best wishes my friend.
2.06 I totally feel you, man... There's highs and lows on speedruns, you just hit rock bottom, my friend...
I'm bummed for you, that's a lot of extra work to get back at it... Happy the body made it almost unscathed, and also happy it is you this happened to, you can afford it and you have the determination to perservere, some others might be worse off in a situation like this. And of course happy the crash happened on that side of the road, that you didn't get hurt.
The MF chassis is so damned nervous, I've seen in so many videos, people need to steer all the time, accidents are bound to happen...
Just happy it was only material damage...
Thanks Mads, it could have been a lot worse and I could have Pete Wylied myself or my wife with it. I may not wind first place in speed but I think I have a firm grip on the most gnarly crash so far! I am still not 100% sure what happened, it looked a lot different in video than I remember seeing it when driving but in the end it ended poorly and I will get it rebuilt! I have all the parts I need on the way and will be back out to a larger and hopefully safer spot to run next time!
That stinks brother! I’m sure you’ll be back faster and stronger! I know how it feels when those posts jump out in front of you!!😂🤜🤛
Yeah it was not how I had planned the morning to go that is for sure. I have stuff on the way to get it fixed/replaced. Tamiya USA is terrible about shipping things with any sense of urgency so I broke down and ordered a new kit the should be here this weekend (fingers crossed). I will get it built and back out there as soon as I can!
'Well, that could've gone a little better'.... Welcome to the undersratement of the year! Woah Addam, that is such a shame.
LOL! I would have liked to have gotten at least on clean (documented) pass with it before splattering it all over the road! The DT02 went so much better than this one has LOL! I can laugh now but I really wanted to hurl the thing in the woods behind me and go home!! Parts are on their way and I will be back in it as soon as I can!!
@@AddamsPlayground i could sense your anger and have had that feeling before.
The DT02 was great handling wise, definitely
Holy sheep shit brother that thing was moving on a 2s 😮 full send 💪🏽 like Colin McRae said ...if in doubt flat out 🙏🏽
It was going well until it didn't LOL! It will get rebuilt and get back out there to go over 70mph or die trying!
As we say over here in Scotland, "That's a dull yin mate"
I'm glad that the body survived somewhat intact 👍
I still haven't managed to post an official time in the brushed category yet because of broken rear lower arm issues, beetle body tearing apart and aftermarket wheels exploding at the slightest touch.
Ill be back out today to try and film one run where everything goes ok and be done with it!! Lol
It did not go to plan that is for sure. These are some finicky and twitchy little things to try and get going fast! I have some of the parts here and the rest are on the way so as soon as I can get it all reassemble d it will be back out for another go. Next time will be at a larger and smoother location so less things to hit or cause issues. Best of luck with yours as well, I hope the both of us are done with tearing things up!
Wow that hit hard.
That body looks like it took it like a champ.
Hope you can get it back together for another run and put a good speed down.
Yeah it was not how I had hoped it would go at all! The body and the servo wire were the only thing keeping it kind of in one piece! Parts are on the way and I will get it back out there for another go as soon as I can! I will get a good clean run in or it gets set on fire LOL and thrown off a cliff. Either way it will be a good video next time! LOL!!
Wow Addam 😮😢 The imprint in the post says it all 😮 Take care 🤝
I left my mark for sure! I may not get the fastest speed but I may get the title for quickest disassembly! I have the parts on order and will get back out there as soon as I can. Well not to this spot, but a more open and safer spot I hope!
Sorry about the crash. That Mazda body looks awesome. For the ding or dent, try using a kitchen torch or anything that provide pin point heat will usually return to plastic to normal or normal-ish. For kitchen torch, I heat it with just 1 or 2 clicks of heat and it restore and wait and repeat if necessary. Practice on spares 1st.
I can laugh at it now but when I picked it up and saw it was in multiple pieces my first thought was to hurl it into the woods behind me and just go home! LOL! the parts are on order and it will be back as soon as I can get it all repaired. The body will get a little shoe-goo in the back to fix the split but I am going to rock the scars of everything else! It earned them!
Oh god Addam you have certainly beaten me in terms of amount of damage caused to an MF-01X in a crash 😬 This is a tricky chassis at speed for sure. It is gutting when this sort of thing happens but I know you'll be back when you get all the bits. Best wishes mate 😁👍👍
I thought you had a handle on the most carnage but I may have stolen that from you. Thankfully it hit the post and not my ankle, not sure I would have walked away from that! I have parts coming and it will get fully rebuilt and back out there for another go. It is going to go 70+ or burst into flames trying. I'll bring the marshmallows with me next time just in case!
Bad luck. Hope you get it back up and running.
It will be back out as soon as I can get it put back together. I am going to a more wide open and smoother spot for the next run though! LOL!
I’ll say it again, oh man 😮 the body held up well 👍 im sure you’ll have it rebuilt and running in no time 👍
Yeah, not the result I was looking for out there! I should be able to get it rebuilt this weekend, supposedly the new kit will arrive on Saturday. I had originally ordered just the parts I needed but Tamiya USA is about the slowest place in the world to get things from. Ordered on Sunday and still have not shipped out. Very disappointed in them but I have another kit coming in and should be here Saturday. This is getting to be a costly adventure doing these speed runs! I will get it to over 70mph or kill it trying!
@@AddamsPlayground im sure you will get there, sadly had to sit this one out 😭 very little time to get runs in, crap weather and couldnt really afford to buy one. So many big vintage events to pay for. Its not cheap going to all these events. Will be as bad next year aswell 😂
@@lo2713 I am sure you have a lot more fun at the events than trying to go fast and hitting curbs for a speed run so I completely understand!
@@AddamsPlayground to be honests, the racing gets in the way of seeing people i only see a few times a year 😁
Wow that was a mega crash Addam.. may be easier to buy a new kit.. was going quick to.. love the ooooohhhh mmmmmmaaaasnnnnnnn 😊 Pete
Yes, rapid deconstruction at its finest! I almost bought a new one but found everything I needed. My wife does know how to add some humor into the crashes by accident! Take care Pete!
Sorry to see that happen Addam , hope you get it rebuilt soon
Yeah it did not go as planned but the parts are ordered and I will get it back together as quick as I can! Heading to a better and safer location to run next time! LOL!
That really sucks I hope your able to rebuild it I still cringe when I see it hit the post lost for words
I left my mark out there on the post but it definitely won the fight! It will get rebuilt and back out for another run. I am going to get it over 70mph or kill it trying! Came really close this time 50% dead this time around! LOL
O boy this is not good... for you that is I am sure everyone loved seeing it explode on impact though! 😱😱
I am may not win for speed but I think I have a firm grasp on most destructive crash of the year! LOL!
Good luck on the rehab!!
It will be back, it won't be a 6 million dollar man rebuild but it will at least get the $69.95 rebuild LOL!
Ouch… you really did a number on that car Addam 😢. It might be cheaper to source another kit and just salvage parts off the wreck, at least then you will have a few spare parts if any other solid objects jump out in front of you again.
Thankfully I already had the chassis parts so the others I had to source from a few place but I got everything I need on its way. I almost broke down and got another kit but I know I would end up buying all the parts later and end up with two which is not terrible but not the most cost effective thing! LOL! I will be going out to a different location with a much smoother surface and less things to hit for the next outing with it! I am going to get a clean official pass wit this thing!!!
Gutted for you Addam, such a shame it was on the first pass as well. As others have said a new or even a second hand built kit may be more cost effective. At least in the Uk the Beetle kit can be had new for a little over £120. Hope you can get back up and running before the end!
Yeah it did not go as well as I had hoped LOL! If I did not already have the chassis set and driveshaft here than I would have ordered a new kit. Since I had that stuff already I went ahead and just got the parts. I know myself and I would have ended up just buying the parts later one and rebuilding it and end with two and spending way more money! I have everything on the way and as soon as it all shows up I get it rebuilt and back out for another go. Next time is in a much larger and wide open area that is also smoother so hopefully no more accidents! It will go over 70mph or I am going to set it on fire and roast marshmallows over it! LOL!
The body still looks good. That was a walk of shame if I ever saw one. Sucks it was totaled. Worst damage I have seen in a single crash!
The body is dinged up but loves to make another run. The rest of it was a total mess! It was a very "internally conversational" walk of shame for sure. Mostly talking myself out of hurling it into the woods and driving home without it! LOL! I kept my cool, scooped up the pieces and came home and ordered what I needed to get it rebuilt. I will find out if that was a good decision or not on the next run I guess! LOL!
@@AddamsPlayground Good luck man! I think you held it together well!
That slammed hard !! Dam man
Maybe I will get awarded most gnarly crash in the comp?!?! I hope mine is the worst, I don't want to see any worse than that!! Parts are on the way and I will be back in it as soon as I can.
Carnage.
Yes, that is the best word for it! parts are coming and it will be rebuilt and back out there to go at least 70!!
Fortunately I never had a crash like that, the best thing is that your nice body is still there with really minor damages that to me are quite nice, like my Alfa 155 that flow down from the barn and now has some wrinkle on the back. The frame no problem just spare and work! Ciao
Yes, all the car can be rebuilt but the body is the one of a kind piece. It has some character now for sure and it will be back out for another run as soon as I can get it all rebuilt!
@@AddamsPlayground Ciao!
Bugger! Sorry it went like that Gee!
Admire yr determination tho!
Gauranga
Yeah, it did not go as planned! I have the parts on the way for it and it will be back as soon as I can get it all back together. I will not give up!
Hey Addam I know how you feel on this one. A one run and done, sorry that happened to you and the MF-01x at least the body is still in great shape and can be used on the next chassis. I will say that the chassis is pretty tough, seems like it broke where most of the weight was placed. I'm pretty sure you could have hit that 60mph mark. I know that you are not done and we will see it back out soon (hopefully) Again sorry for the mishap, take care and best wishes to you and the family.
It was definitely not the morning I had planned to have but if the car was the only loss then it is fine. Much better than hitting on of us at that speed! It was on its way to 60+ when it turned into the worst transformer ever! It will be back and I will get to over 70 in the next runs with it. If I am rebuilding it all might as well stick the fastest stuff in there and let it rip! Take care Al and have a great week!
Sorry to see I know it’s painful! Wondering if it’s just cheaper to buy a new kit and just salvage any usable parts off the broken one?
Quicker probably. I already had the chassis parts, driveshaft and shocks here. Just 3 or 4 things I had to order but they are taking forever to ship. Sadly my LHS only has TT02 kits in stock so no luck there either!
Sorry to see that crash... 56 with stock dampers? Maybe that was the cause.
Yeah it did not go as planned! it does have the mini CVAs on it. When the top ripped off the bladder was still intact so no oil came out. The road is old and is not the smoothest so when I got towards the edge and not in the middle where I wanted it to be, it got into the rougher pavement and was not happy. The next outing will be at a much smother area with less things to hit! I am getting ready to go down now and start the new build.
Dang buddy
I may not win a top spot in speed but i think I have a firm grip on most devastating crash so far! LOL! It will be rebuilt and be back out as soon as can get all the stuff in for it.
oh, shizzle! :(
Yeah, did not go to plan but it will be back out there for another attempt as soon as i get it all back together! It will get over 70mph or go up in flames trying!
The trash pile is bigger...lol.. 😂
Yes, it was kind of funny the piles were so close in size. Parts are on their way and it will be back out once again as soon as possible!
Ouch!
LOL! Yeah it did not go to plan! I have gotten the replacement built and will be getting out with it tomorrow morning for hopefully a nice clean run with it! The new spot does not have a long row of big posts to run into!
Take it as a lesson.. and at least your electronics survived (mostly) and your battery is still in good shape. Could have been much worse! 🔥👀👍
Yeah the expensive bit survived and the parts are on their way here. Not exactly as I had hoped it would go. I did get to come home and run the 3s battery in one of the other kits here so that helped take my mind off the pile of trashed parts!! LOL!
@@AddamsPlayground That's the speed run life!
Goodness, that hooked outa no where on ya. I hate that for you. I've been there too. Time to do a Six Million Dollar Man on it.
It was odd I was trying to gently correct it and it just kept drifting over to its doom. I was quite impressed the whole wheel and wheel nut was imprinted on the post, talk about leaving your mark! Parts are on their way and I will get it back together as soon as I can! I think it will be more like the $65 man rebuild but it will be back! LOL!
If its any consolation, you got over twice as fast as me when i cut my losses. I stopped after 1 wrecked shell and 2 steering servos.
Yeah, it is not much fun breaking things and tearing up the body. I purposely got a runner body as i knew this one was going to get banged up by the end of the challenge, wasn't expecting this but it survived! Thankfully the servo is one of the super cheap 4 for $20 ones I have a few of sitting here already. The body and the servo wire was the only thing left holding the front and back halves together!
Zero safety stars for side impact on that tamiya. Thank goodness your electronics survived
LOL!!! Yes, I think it did not pass the side impact test. There were flying colors but it was from the parts flaying off of it! LOL!! Yes, the cars parts are not too bad, the motor and ESC are the expensive bits! Parts are on the way and it will be back out as soon as I can get it stuck back together!
DANG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It was going well until it wasn't... LOL! It will be back and it will do 70+ or I will set it on fire and roast marshmallows over it ashes! LOL!!
well, i guess you got something to tinker on now eh?
Yes, except for the front arm assemblies everything else is getting built from scratch basically! LOL!
Get out? Was someone in it?
LOL! I think she was warning all the woodland creatures nearby to evacuate!
Damn bro, that thing got annihilated. That's tough. At least you kept your cool. Hey, 56 mph on a 2S battery is pretty cool. You wanna hear a crazy idea? No? Well I'm gonna say it anyway. What if you put the chassis and all the plastic parts in a 3D printer program, sent it off to PCB Way and had the whole thing made of 7075 aluminum or some other crazy material? Yo! How cool would that be? Everything, all the gears, everything. That would be a one of for sure. One can dream, right? It would definitely make a cool video. Who knows how much that would cost? Anyway, you'll get 'em next time! Love the videos, man!

I am still not sure what happened but it ended poorly. It just made 58 on the new chassis and I have one more run to make on 3s to try and hit my goal of 70.
I'm sorry
I was quite angry when it happened but I can laugh at it now! The parts have been ordered and once here I will get it all reassembled and back out for another run. Next time at a larger and smoother location with less things to possibly hit!!
It looks like you just broke the thing at the end of the drive shaft.Looks like the drive shaft's fine. At least didn't snap I can't believe you bent that shaft though.
Oh the drive shaft it bent badly. It is bent right where it goes into the side cover are and it wobbles all over the place. I mean it went from 56 to 0 in an instant, I am surprised the pile of useable parts was as big as it was!
well could have hit you lucky in that way other side of the road
Yeah hitting the post is better than me or the wife for sure! Parts are on the way and I will be back in it as soon as possible!
Well done Addam you have won crash & biggest damage of the season!🍾🫣 oh man indeed!!!!
I may not be the fastest speed but I think I got the fastest disassembly title so far! I can laugh now but I really wanted to hurl it into the woods behind me and just go home LOL! The parts are on the way and I will be getting it back together as soon as possible! My wife is good at adding in a bit of humor to the crashes!
@AddamsPlayground lol yeah l can see why you felt mad! You came back with your car literally in two bits!😫
Epic crash though!🙌
Hopefully you can sort it without too much cost!
