I do replace my chassis every year though, ...at least I did w/ the M05 VI ...my V2 only has one race season on it so far. I'll probably change the chassis out sometime this coming season ...just because the plastic gets a bit weak. ...especially around the area where the steering screws go in. But chassis are cheap.
Yeah, I am experiencing the same thing. I'm using more longer screws as the screw holes are getting worn out each time..

I don't crank the screws on all that tight either. I have two more V2 chassis (just the black plastic pieces, not the entire car) in-house so it should last me a while.
The ceramic bearings monkeyracing mentioned is a good idea for sure though. But I have too many regular metal bearings at the moment.. in brighter news, pizza for dinner.
