    Looks like somebody missed on the chassis setup---Think maybe he should have invested in wheelie bars....

    Cool vid!

    Might want to think of dialing back the N20 off the line ... I don't think minor chassis tuning will fix that without wheelie bars out back or a lot of ballast up front...

    Wow, Reading the comments he was able to keep racing after that. Says a LOT about the integrity of the chassis. I would have expected major damage after a landing like that. Amazing!

    Of course, that's just my opinion, I could be wrong!

    When it came down it looked the the oil pan or something was dragging between the front wheels. I'm glad he was alright and could keep racing. Gives a good reason for wheelie bars, I agree!
