So this might be the most durable car I have ever owned. I have thrashed and thrashed it to no end for the past couple of months and nothing has broken. This weekend at the track I changed my gearing to be more aggressive to try and clear the triple in new layout and while practicing the jump the car crashed so hard that the front camber turnbuckle was ripped out of the ballstud entirely but the ballstud did not break. During the hit the steering linkage popped off and went flying but that was it. I screwed the turnbuckle back on the ballstud, popped it back in along with the steering link ballstud and was good to go.

As for wear and tear I have some good slop in the rear arm hinge pin area from all the thrashing but that's it.

Last week this guy clipped my rear tire in the straight at high speed so car went flipping sideways down the straight to the end of the track, flew off the track and slammed into the wall then to a 6ft drop on concrete and nothing broke.
