Good looking out my friend, although I already have those 2 holes sealed up, but I understand that dirt/sand may be able to get through the front and rear compartments where the ball diffs settle into. I guess sand can get through those plastic belt tension adjuster pieces. I'm pretty sure if I'm able to get those sealed up (Any suggestions for this , will be appreciated as always.

), My DB-01 will be virtually sand proof to the bone. This will be great for the summer while running it through sand hills and jumps out in the dunes. So much fun especially with the power of BL/Lipo combined. The buggy acts as if nothing can stop it, as it cruises like a hovercraft across the hills and over the jumps which I'm able to get about 15 or so feet in the air and a distance of about 25 feet. The best part about screwing up a landing at those distances is the fact that no damage occurs, due to the soft cushioned impact. Can't wait for the warm weather to roll around as I always am.
