DEX210 - What have people broken
 

In the process of ordering spares and so forth.

I haven't broken anything yet, but seen a few rear towers done


What have people broken and what did you do to break it?

So far just 1 front wishbone, cars don't agree with concrete :woot:

I know of two cases of broken rear wishbones, and a bent inner rear hinge pin.

Both for good reason...

not sure if this counts, but I cross threaded the spur cover onto the motor plate as it's difficult to get it in straight without a ball ended hex drive (which I have now)

So far just a rear tower overall I think the car is pretty tough

I think I may have done mine too... Really annoying...

Me 3!

Rear Shock Tower & Rear Front Plastic Suspension Mount..

I have :-

TD 330337 F wish bones
TD 330338 R wish bones
TD 330339 Knuckle/hub set

All new unsed but not in packet £15 posted if anybody is interested ?

Other than typical buggy breakage items, that you've experienced in the past - it seems that threads like these always come with posts from people that do a lot of crashing, as it seems impossible to have broken anything yet as these cars haven't even had time to have been worn-in of yet. :lol:

Nothing up until today but I've now got a broken spur gear cover due to someone ramming me.

Animal!

Rear shock towers where popular at Coventry today, five or six got broken, usually as the result of a tumble after the double.

Yup I know the jump at Coventry. Did the same with my xx but didn't break the rear tower etc

Rear Shock Tower. It was big crash.:eh?:
Body split along the lower window line on both sides. Now held together with cricket bat tape.

My shell also split open today along 1 of the seam's :thumbdown:

Rear Shock Towers here :mad: Carbon ones on the way :)

I have run my car for Equiv. of a full days racing..

I broke 2 rear towers on my 1st time out with the car, they were not so much bad landing but catching a wheel in a high speed section and rolling. Which catches the top edge and snapped it. They have both broken in the exact same spot. And see almost like small air pocket or 2 there.

But I don't know enough about injection moulding and so on to comment much more. I raced the buggy yesterday morning and had 0 issues. And there was a large jump at torch and landed to flat a few times. For me this buggy is amazing I have never driven a 2wd in anger before but this one rocks! Got some carbon goodness on the way, but cant fault the buggy so far!

3rd weekend of racing and broke a rear shock tower, out in front no pressure just a hard landing after a jump. Definetly seems to be the weak spot on the car as i have seen others go . Carbon on the way .

Plenty to be broken at the MK GP then! Good job I've ordered 5 packs!
