Mine lasted 2 practices, 4 rounds of qualifying and two laps of the final at sunny Newbury today, then ............ rear outdrive broke
 Car was excellent in practice on foam tyres (yep foams), organisers said any tyres were allowed but changed their minds to any off-road tyre  ..... still, rules is rules even if they're not clear. Car was not-so-good on minipins and struggled on the slippy stuff to be consistent. Almost all the incidents of these breaking i've heard of have been indoor racing on big jumps. I've raced outdoors on 'normal' tracks with no problem  ......... can I have some outdrive savers Mr North? ..... PLEASE

Tyres problem may have been my fault, so apologise if it was. I put any tyres on the flyer and assumed people would realise off-road tyre (for an off-road race, albeit indoors). Sorry.
Sad you have had problems. I have broken a trillion outdrives at Newbury, but today I didn't break one, although I did put an extra spacer/limiter on all my shocks. In fact I didn't break anything today, awesome. Medium flex wishbones ftw! Anyway, I think the new outdrives are due out next week, if not very soon indeed. With that sorted the car seems great.

Yep i broke one on the warm up lap, just rolled the car over a small jump and it went (thanks Mr.Church for lending me his car).
I only had a o-ring limiting my shocks, as i found with any more there isnt enough travel for when landing on the jumps and tends to kick the car back up into the air!! Had some BIG air of the jumps today with out breaking, altough the pin on the driveshaft has moved from centre causing my broken outdrive not the jumps up travel!

I've put 2mm alloy spacers on the outside of the shock shafts on my Cat. Plenty of big air time today at the MKGP and had several heavy landings with no breakages. Don't think 'o' rings are a solution as they compress too much on a heavy landing.

as i said in my previous post i had done this origianlly but i feel this causes the car to kick back up under landing of jumps!
i dont think taking the washers i did have in there caused my broken outdrive, but the fact the pin had moved from centre causing the driveshaft to drop on the outdive and catch wishbone! Paul

Yeah, when I broke mine I was on that same said jump for me and I hit it wrong and landed on the front left wheel, it snapped my arm, out drive, and bent the shock shaft and ripped the ball cup out.
Some guys were saying the car is weak, but those that saw the landing said any car that landed like would have broke...which I agreed lol

Don't ask Gary P about outdrives, it's got to be a sore subject after this weekend. Along with exploding rear hubs, and suicidal LiPo's
.Judging by the results at least you finished the final mate, and thats the one that matters.
