Bashing with the boys...

Went to bash with my son (dark t-shirt) and nephews who wanted to drive the Baja so badly! Unfortunately our bashing ended at around 30 minutes (thankfully each had taken the radio for 10 min. approx. so far!) with a rear tire torn apart, AGAIN!
You may notice at one pics close to the end (img1593) the left rear tire showing signs of wear). Mind you these were bought mounted new and it was the first ever time they were run. Next time we will run the Hostile A/T's and/or MX tires... (Ordered them already, waiting for the arrival in the mail, now!). Seems the Soft compound HPI tires are not up to so much... bashing, after all!
There's also a difference in the mounted tires' beadlock. It's smaller than the ones that came with the SS kit.
Other damages? Not much, really! The exhaust shows a couple of dents, plus it seems it's almost touching the engine, now, like somehow someone pushed it from behind. Also, the plastic undertray shows severe signs of wear and the lower lexan covers are both badly broken. I fixed the right one with duct tape, but they need some better protection. Maybe a "Protecta" undercover. We will see...
