I finally got my Duratrax Warhead going good and was bashing up and down the road. Well my truck got out of range and stayed at full throttle. slam into a guard rail. one half stayed and the other half kept going. total damage 174.36$$$. I got it back together one day after i got the parts. Get a fail safe
I crashed with a 6x1 into a pole and broke my chassis and every in my front suspension. I snapped my shock shafts in half and my shock tower was in 3 pieces. Also, when I hit it, i dropped my m11 because i was so scared. Also not only that I broke my servo and receiver. DIALED!..Cost me 1000. AE IS DIALED
I would say about $100. I was returning home from a run in the desert. I was walking along the side of the road, my RC10 in front, when the battery died. I didn't have auxiliary power for the steering so the car coasted out on to the road where it was promptly run over. It was late on a Saturday afternoon. Destroyed everything forward of the battery.

The worst total damage in ac $figure in a single wreck that I have experienced was when a rookie cut in front of me and hit the brakes which caused the car to hit the wall, destroying the speed control, aluminum a-arms, carbon fiber chassis, and ruined my brand new shocks. the total cost of damage was $174.49 Thanks a-lot rookie
One time I was racing up in the lot of my LHS and an unnamed assailant came up behind me and started shouting "WHAT'S THE FREQUENCY, KENNETH?!?!?!" I lost control of the vehicle and when headlong into the curb section. My name isn't Kenneth, this was uninspiring to me. My car was a total loss- about $120.
Excellent question of the week!!! My best and most worse wreck was from I had the LIPO batteries on my TC4 and FIRE!!!! Not to be alone I was caught from behind with a PRO 3. All in all the damages were in excess of 1.3 billion. i love you team AE!!!!!!!!
The worst total damage in one car wreck was when one rookie cut in front of me and then hit the brakes . My car spun out of control hit the wall and broke my brand new carbine fiber chassis for my 18t and the crash also destroyed 2 aluminum a-arms. The total cost of the repair was $135.56 Thanks a lot rookie!!!
I had just bought a factory team tc4 kit along with Novak speed control (250), 10 turn reedy motor, (60) made my own 3300 battery (100) Airtronics radio with receiver (300) wheels and tires (50) Nissan 350Z body and upgraded almost everything to titanium or aluminum. All in all i spent over 1000 on it when i picked up someone else's frequency and it went into a ditch. Lost everything :(
I am pretty lucky in 20 or more years so far i haven't really caused damage to anything else or my RC cars that bad .So the most in $ amount so far was two days ago i was 100 miles from home visiting family, [showing off] running my rc10gt for my son at a mind blowing speed i didn't have the mixture correct and ended up destroying the engine. But on a lighter note the old saying that it never ran as good as it did right before it blew up is true. NuffSaid
