So tonight I made it about 3 laps before the left rear fell off the car. I didn't think I hit anything very hard. It could have been from someone t-boning me on the straight after I spun out. Anyway, one of the screws holding the pivot block sheared off, and then it bent the hinge pin, and bent a camber link turnbuckle.

1) Are the titanium hinge pins stronger than the regular ones, or just lighter? They're only $13 as opposed to $9 for the regular, so if they're stronger, it's worth the money.

2) If I go from the CF arms to the med flex arms, will the car be more durable? I'm getting really frustrated breaking things all the time.
