Vandal Spur Gear Protection

Because the Vandal’s spur gear always drags in the dirt when racing this awesome car it is subject to significant wear. To protect it a little bit from the sand I cut out a tiny piece of plastic that I glued to the bottom of the chassis frame with some CA and then covered it with duct tape. I hope it lasts longer this way.

Vandal: loose screws

After my first ride with the Vandal yesterday, the front wheels had lost power. I figured something must gone wrong with the front diff. So today I opened up the Vandal and discovered, the screw that holds the drive shaft to the gear box simply had come loose.
