Nevertheless, in my first month of RC car bashing, I've managed to break, in approximately this order:
- Right rear shock eyelet
- Wing mount (replaced w RPM)
- Bumper (replaced w RPM)
- Left rear shock eyelet
- Left rear outer wheel bearing exploded...

- Left front shock eyelet
- Slightly bent front shock tower (living with it for now)
- Two of the white ports on my charger, plus one of the connector cords shorted to oblivion (ha!)
- Shredded rear tires, repaired and one re-shredded and replaced
- Front left A-arm
