To bash, or not to bash....

[DLK83]

Just looking for some general insight from some of you hard-core guys.... I've finally had time this fall to get back at it, built a pretty big ramp and regularly send it 20/30ft up and multiple backflips, etc... my dilemma is: it's hard on the rigs obviously, but I can't seem to stop lol... after big air and big flips and all that, everything else seems boring I have a crazy 8s drag Infraction so that helps break it up, but I just can't bring myself to "take it easy", anyone else have that issue??

Don’t expect any help from me only encouragement

I've played the "let's see who can spend the most money the fastest" game.

Now, I prefer watching others break sh!t.

Not really looking for help, just making sure there's other idiots out there like me lol... I always find comfort in knowing I'm not stupid alone

That's my buddy I usually bash with... he doesn't have the best vision, so he'll bring like 10 rigs with him and always breaks the first 2 in less than 10 minutes lol

Unfortunately I can't relate. I built a  small ramp and sent mine up 8-10 feet, but never finished a battery pack without breaking something.

Put the ramp in storage and am a high speed dirt basher now.

Got my eye on the Notorious right now though, so that might change soon...

Set up a course with some cones and run it, time yourself. Keep trying to beat your best lap.

I'm right there with you man! If it ain't flying through the air and giving me that rush..I get bored. My issue is it's hard to have as much fun with the smaller rigs after sending the 8s ones 30ft in the air. Whole other level! That being said I always run my smaller stuff first if I run multiple that day. But to me..breaking sht is half the fun. Yeh it gets expensive but I didn't get into this hobby to save money! I got one of those fresh park ramps recently and been breaking more than usual YOLO!

I did that dance at my lhs, raced 2wd stadium truck on a indoor off-road carpet track for about 2 years, absolutely loved it... I have more than enough property here, I could probably build a great track, there's already an overgrown miniature dirt bike track here with natural dirt jumps from the previous owner's son... now I actually have a reason to get a Talion and the new 4s Mojave, good call Dutch!

Oh man, I regret selling my Flux XL so damn bad, thing was an animal! Nice videos by the way, I'd love to start doing short videos of our bash sessions

I can totally relate! When the 8s trucks came out I didn’t care about anything else!! It’s hard to explain..
