No bent shock shafts, only bent screws. they do have a really high ramp (one that you do a u turn on while going vertical) and i over shot it and my buggy landed on it's back from about 20 ft up and busted my rear bulkhead. But i think that type landing would have broke just about anything. Cartwheels, flips, landing on one tire doesn't phase it. I am trying 5 7 5 diff fluid and really liking it.
ya know... your buggy sounds a lot like an olympic gymnast.
