Its not carbon knock guys, this thing fell apart on me. While driving it wouldn't go past 20mph it sounds like a bunch of bolts are being thrown around inside.

Its toast! I got the guys at XAT Racing to do my build.

Were you the only owner of this vehicle? do you keep up pretty good with regular maintenance (oil changes, fuel filter, etc...)
