Ouch, sore one! Must have been a super hard landing! Glad to hear you all had a good time regardless.

thats why you go with the buku. the rear exhausts seem to get tore up, and ripped off to easily. i have the polished hpi pipe, and for the hpi engine, it woke it up pretty good.

could possiably fix it still if it is just dented and deformed. look up the method of freezing ur pipe, seems to work well and its a loss anyway so no point in not trying to fix it
Bashing + rear exhaust = bad idea. Time for a Buku!

OUCH!! but looks like you had fun and thats all that matters.
Not to get off thread topic, but thanks Dread, I just got the HPI polished pipe and I can't wait to see the difference the pipe will make.
Yeah, rear exaust isn't good for bashing. I jump the crap out of my rig, and I can't count the amount of broken bumper screws I have now. I'm sure I'd have destroyed many rear pipes by now lol.

Evenin all,
I think its safe to say he wont be buying another rear fitting exhaust!Looking at the vid,the landing wasnt all that bad !

Just unlucky on that landing with the wrong angle. Too bad, but the newer pipe on side should make it run better.

I agree w/ Pine, it seems like it was just a bit unlucky.
It's kind of funny how you can mash these things into just about anything sometimes and they don't seem to take a scratch, then another time you just seem to clip something a tiny bit and the whole damn thing practically explodes.
