I have been the same way with all my RC cars. Run them hard for a day until they break then put htem away for a while. If you go with an all AL chassis, get a little stronger engine or you will be dissapointed once you get going again.

Dude! If you're in korea look up GMade. They're a korean company that make some kick ass trucks, at a price. Check out my setup.
