I got an idea for ya...How about you get a rubber mallet and take a good wack at your tank...this way you will no longer be a "Virgin" stunter . I still haven't done that to mine...I'd rather let nature take it's course..so to speak .

I've had people ask me if I did mine in with a hammer. Most people not in the know don't understand how it got smashed in. They're always like "what happened to your tank" so I tell them and then they can't believe anyone would ride a wheelie or stoppie like that. Damn locals!

I was like you when i started stunting. I even bought another tank and bashed that one in with a hammer. One day i tried crossed up endos and just didn't feel like putting the other tank on...on the first endo she dented. Its alright though...**** is pimp. Dented in is gangsta.
