Most of the chaps I see repeatedly landing on their roofs are driving over their heads.

If and when I do land one of my buggies on its roof do I expect damage?
Of course I do. It would be silly not to. Everything is exposed.
It's like clipping turning posts. Do I expect to snap or bend axles? Of course I do.

But at the end of the day, if you're purchasing sub-200 quid cars (knock-offs) to save money, do you really expect it's going to be as durable as the above-200 quid cars on the market?
"Crashing costs money." I think you need to get the concept into your head -- and consider yourself lucky if you don't break something when you crash, especially landing upside down.
i do agree.
however at club level, crashing and being crashed into is unavoidable.
i dont go on my roof very often, this is why im slightly concerned with this specific part.
