i was racing at the local track like 2 years ago with my original nitro rs4 with an O.S. CV-X .12 motor and no other mods, even the stock tires. luckily i was winning because everyone else had a two speed and it was a tight ass small track where my single speed let me up out of the corners without spinning. i had about a lap over the second place guy and because he had a two speed, he walked all over me on the front straight. we both came out of the last sweeping turn onto the front straight and nailed the throttle wide open. he came up behind me and stuck his hpi lamorghini nose under my hpi porsche 911 gt1 and flipped me onto my lid where my car was then pushed all the way down the straigh upsidedown. i hit the outside retaining wall in the first turn and flipped OVER it into a brick building beside the track and broke my left front shock shaft in half. the marshall put me back on the track and i finished third with three shocks and tires covered in the shock fluid i was leaking. i ended up with a stadium truck shock without a spring for the a-main. and by a strike of luck i beat the guy who flipped me because he ran out of gas with 48 seconds to go. it was great to go show him what the trophy looked like at the end of the day.
