    Disater has struck!!!

    Was driving me car about and this happened





    So here is the engine in bits



    and a shot of the rest of the car



    So am currently looking for a new piston now, and are like gold dust for this engine, oh well I should really be chatting less on here and spending more time searching for it. Will keep you up-dated with my progress.

    Adios for now

    Haha you bastard, let out a sympathetic 'ooooh' at the first pics.. and then burst out laughing when it turns out its an RC...

    hope you get it fixed soonish mate! Got a 'leccy tamiya sitting in my cupboard gathering dust... the sort of thing that seems like a great idea at the time, itll be a blast to drive around for ages, then you realise that after 10 mins its pretty fackin boring just in an empty car park hah... then something breaks and it sits in bits on the workbench for three weeks. JUST LIKE A FIAT
