Default Burn Baby Burn. Gilstead Inferno!

Me and a couple of mates sometimes go to a little church hall near Bingley of a friday to race around with a dozen or so like minded guys. Tonight they ran 9 minute rounds. Look what happened to my Cyclone!

Do you think it could be repaired?

Ouch!

Bit of duct tape should fix that right up!

Originally being a nitro man i have little knowledge of magic smoke, is this magic smoke what esc's run on, and therefore why they don't work with big melty holes in the side?

...some of the magic smoke? By the fog in the hall I would say ALL of it! Although, being a clever Novak, it did try to make some more by spitting flaming fets onto the wooden floor!!! Unfortunately, the organiser did a special anti-smoke dance to stop the magic, well, until the fet burnt the sole of his sneekers,
