OK I am sure some of you heard how my ancient TTR Mirage Vspec got Blasted by a very fast moving CRT on the back straight during practice 2 weeks ago. It got pretty quiet in there after the impact. Parts were flying from both vehicles in all directions. LOL.

Since then I am waiting for parts for the TTR, but I found a Mayhem pro roller for 75 buckaroos. I jumped on it cuz parts are cheap and available...alot more than the TTR.

So after several trips to AL's and many conversations with Tim, I finally have it almost ready. All thats left are a few suspension adjustments and rebuilding the shocks. The electronics, motor and pipe I pulled from the TTR. Took some doing finding the right motor mount, and I don't have the parts to use the servo in the laydown position. Next purchase will be a hyper 8 port for outdoor season. This Saturday should be the first day on the track with it. We'll see how well it does.

It seems to be a much more refined ride than the other one. The old one will be given to a buddy of mine to suck him back into the hobby so I can have a designated pit beesh.

It wasn't totally his fault. I flamed out in the back straight due to a bad clutch combined with a poor tune. He came around the corner on to the straight and laid the hammer down. Before I thought to say "Dead on the backstraight" I heard that dreaded crunch.

Yeah I realized that after I posted. That little bastard is always getting into something. Last night I had all kinds of screws and parts on the work table and he decides he has to walk across it. I was picking up parts from the floor for 5 minutes.
