I broke a front shock tower and rear wishbone by landing short on a massive triple running a 4.5t on a nitro track. Also broke a front shock shaft a last year sometime, thats my lot from the 501x in the 20 odd months running the 501x.

I think im not trying hard enough

I've done two xxx4 chassis, one plastic the other graphite, and lots of other little bits and pieces.

and only 1 wishbone on my xxx -cr

my stepson has done around 10 front shock towers on his xx4we and 4 of them was with the carbon brace fitted.


and all that since we started racing in march last year

Tonights injuries, 1 front wishbone and a rear T piece.

I must add, 3wheel races are the future!
