So I had modified the OG chassis back in OCT-2017, and there were some naysayers who claimed that it would weaken the chassis where I had drilled the holes:

I have sold the car over a year ago and it has transferred ownership to 2 different owners since then, just yesterday the new owner finally broke the original chassis, after 2.5 years of racing!

Take special note that the break was along the screw hole for the diff case, no where near the holes I drilled for the PTX, ha!
