After a wild run with my Rovan baja 5b in my backyard track, I saw that a lower, rear suspension arm was wet with oil. I checked the rear shock at that point. Yes; it was leaking shock oil; a sealing ring on the shock shaft had come loose.
I opened the shock cylinder; it was empty and I hadn't any spare shock oil to refill it. So, I boldly emptied the oil from the rest of the shocks and started running the buggy like that: with undampened shocks. Man! It was a bouncing handful and I loved it! To date, I'm still running it that way. It's downright exhilarating!
But, I must ask: Is what I'm doing "bad" in any way?
