I do it all.

It just doesn't make sense how one won't drive in snow/slush grime, but will no problem speed run into a curb or jump 50 feet and nose dive.

Everything has potential to cause damage and 20 minutes of aftercare is worth a rip/bash session and some great footage.

Money will be spent no matter what.

Z fold 3!? Wtf is that? I've heard of Ben Folds Five
Sorry, my post got all jumbled

HAHAHA The only reason I knew what he meant is because I just got a new phone and that was one of the options.

I don't have snow (wish I did) but the next best thing (sand) I have tons of and it makes a very F'd up sound when it goes through the pinion and spur. But its worth it!

If I had to buy it outright I wouldnt have it. Crazy how much they cost!

Only issues I've experienced with rc's in snow are water in the tires and bearings.
Tires are easy to vent,bearings are cheap enough to replace.
Now if I had a CC(or similar$)equipped rig, I might be concerned just because of the cost of replacing if the water got into them.. I generally only buy cheaper/rtr electronics so..waiting for some snow for bashing!!

Got out for a run this morning on hard packed snow, catching some air off snow mounds. Sick of winter and ready for spring.

Me too. We had a warm up, then rain, now frozen again..hard icy snow. Slip n slide'o Rama! I don't doubt that the plastics loose some flexibility, but damn I had some fun and no breakage
