Battery meltdown!

[simpleskin]

One of my batteries leaked and fried. It was in the car at the time and the car was sitting. Pried the battery out as it was stuck to the battery bay. The battery had leaked. I cleaned out the battery bay and the car is fine, thankfully. Anyone else have any issues with the stock battery? A word of obvious advice, always take your batteries out when not in use!

I always remove my batteries. However, I did something even dumber than that!
Man am I one stupid person. I took the Dnano chassis with me down town to look for the hardware needed for it. I could only find the tiny screws for mounting the plates to the car, and the washers. However, the washers are not nylon, they are black metal. I also could not find the center screw needed for mounting the washers and the spring, however I think I've got a few left at home.
Anyway, dumb ass me, I got home, got distracted sorting out my laundry, and forgot the Dnano was in my pant's pocket. Needless to say, the Dnano got tossed in the laundry. Fortuently, I HOPE, I caught it in time and it look's okay. I took my air compressor and dried it as best as I could. I'll have to let it dry a couple of day's before testing it. I sure hope I didn't ruin it. God I feel so stupid. Good news is the battery was not in place, but, still dont' know if the electronics will survive. Let's hope so.
I'm extreamly pissed at my selfe and I sure as hell hope to the Dnano god's it'll still work.

Two day's of letting it dry, and the car still works perfectly! Amazing!
