I think playing on bikes is for kids......
....toy cars is where its at :thumbsup:

I dont think any of the cars are weak.... haway Gaz, you can't say the TRF cars aren't strong.

A tip for breaking shock towers...... curve a pit of lexan over the front tower for rollover protection.. see mine on Sunday night.

I think you're on the right track though, the best thing you can do to strengthen your car, is throttle exp -25% and Throttle EPA 65%!

Another tip is to use super glue (thin stuff) on top of the carbon, where is its been cut, you will find the carbon soaks up quite a bit of glue, once dry i find the carbon stronger. :thumbsup:

If anyone would like a shock tower, flat top or bottom deck, made from the same carbon as real 2010 F1 cars, let me have your composite one and I'll have a replica made. Free if it doesn't fit exactly, def cheaper than any commercial operation in the UK. May take a bit of time, they come from Italy.
