Most dont think about safety until they have had a near miss. i know that now i look at it differently. As a hill racer i never run all the way to the top anymore. i pick a point that gives me room to get out of a situation if one comes up. Also as bad as it sounds im mentally prepped to abandon ship if need be. lastly minor things like front brakes are being installed on bigger builds. sorry to sidetrack about safety but its very important to me. Question to the op, is the reason for nitro just the challenge of running it or are you trying to get competative
