Chassis damage

The car is running really well now, thanks to all the good advice that's been given!
Unless any of you can suggest a tyre for running on ice we've had to suspend racing although we did get out last night for a couple of hours until security kicked us out of the car park.
One thing that I have noticed now that I've got a bit more speed and consistency is that the chassis is taking a real hammering running in a car park. The uneven surface and the occasional stone means that we're getting sparks. Also last night I somehow managed to rip out one of the countersunk screws that holds the rear diff onto the chassis. I was able to replace it no problem so I don't quite know how it happened.
Is there a setup / optional part or mod that anyone can suggest to cope with the type of surface we're running on?
I guess the ideal would be to raise the running height of the car without making it too stiff.
The current setup is totally standard although I do have the largest spacers on the shocks.
Cheers in advance
