Upon landing the tire rolled under the truck breaking off the tab on the shock cap. It skidded for about 5 more feet before stopping.
I would bet that if you hit the pole the same way with a slash that it would also break. I've raced AE stuff a long time and have broken just about everything possible, but also seen other brands do the same. Usually driver error.
