Finally got a chance to hit this new site we found the other day and bash my Revo into oblivion. The earth is churned up by 4x4s and has been baked hard by the summer. My Revo took a serious bashing from big air and highspeed and is gonna be on the shelf for a while as I start ordering new parts.

The vid is 8mins 640x480 WMV with lots of different music, constant action and a few funny bits, plus an ending run down of the damage (and one emmense high speed crash). Download here:
Revocide Bashing

Here're a few mid action snaps pulled from the movie:




All comments welcome. My poor destroyed Revo deserves some recognition for it's crippling injuries.

Nice small file size - 60Mb

Great video though.

Purposely destroying your buggy for the art of entertainment has to be applauded.

You get a five star spooky rating!

Boo!

hahaha. Cheers. Yeah, 60MB is a biggun, but we're all on broadband these days, and it's 8:30 long! I would never have driven it like that off camera, but like you said, for the art of entertainment, it's worth it.

I was starting to think the body wasn't Lexan How much are you spending to fix the damaged stuff?

The rollcage definitely helps keep the flimsy body together.

There are places to get the parts cheap if you know where to look. If I'm lucky, probably about £20 delivered. If I'm unlucky, £50 maybe.
