Default Ansmann Blizzard Breakages

Hi All,

Before I start I know nothing about Ansmann origins or the product so please forgive me.

A young lad and Dad have just brought one of there cars to race indoors.

First meeting with it last night and it had to following breakages.

2 laps of practice - minor bump - front shock rod snapped
1st heat - landed from a small jump - rear shock rod snapped
Minor bump on the front - shock mount snapped

Forgive me but this seems complete crazy to get these type of breakages on a flat smooth track with one jump (at slow speed, remember this is a novice driver on a small track).

I understand its not a brand like Associated or Schumacher etc but surely it still has to with stand a reasonable amount of throwing it around a track?.

I've told them to send the whole thing back for a refund as not suitable for the job and get a second hand 'brand up' car.

Any thoughts from Ansmann owners?
