The two other guys that normally race 4mod broke 8 arms between the 2 of them. I didn't break and I hit lots of pipes my first couple laps (from all the steering this thing has). now they are scared to run them which is a huge bummer. I have had a couple practice packs on a large outdoor track and let my Brother in Law who has never touched a hobby grade car do a couple laps and made it out just fine.
I think you may be onto something about the front end. looking at my car right now i can see and feel a difference in the plastics between the front end and the rear. strange
