Anyone else got a Blizzard??

[Swerving]

Hi guys,

Relative newbie here, I have built a stock Blizzard to run at my local road track, on road tyres.

I will admit my driving is not the best at the moment but so far, in the 3 months i have run it I have snapped 4 front cvd joints. They appear to be like Rocking horse poo and very difficult to get hold of. I am currently running X4 shafts that Ansmann assure me are identical apart from being made from different material.

I can assure Ansmann they are not identical having less thread for the wheel nuts to go onto, but otherwise seem to be ok. Using wheelnuts from a Master smacker appears to have solved the issue of wheels coming off!

Does anyone else have issues with Blizzard drive shafts??
