Dont think you understand what im saying tbh. The track we go to is Don Valley indoor, the track surface is a hard rubber running track, the track layout is made up from rubber hosing and the track sides are wooden boardings.
Its not the corners doing the damage, its the flipping over at speed after clipping the corner and not landing on the wheels that cause the breaks
Hope that makes sense

Should come to worksop when we are there.
There's plenty of D4's there and we run on a similar(ish) surface, and I don't think we've ever seen those parts broken.

It is strange that those parts should break so easily if the impacts aren't that fast.

We've run at DV for years so know the surface, and the track markings. ...Before we get accused of not knowing.
