MB Models are good for Associated parts and provide great delivery service..
If you have been driving outside , when it is very cold , all plastic parts can become very brittle and easier to break..! Personally, although they are lighter, I think that carbon parts are easier to break, again when cold..
Try to teach him to avoid hitting things..!

Sorry I also for got to ask are all the b4.1 and b4,2 parts compatible with each other ?

[steveproracing]

Yes all b4.1 plastics are compatable with the newer car. Most drivers (even the pros) tend to use the plastic parts as they flex a little more than the carbon parts, so when you hit things with plastic it has a give that takes a bit of the brunt. Def stronger for a young lad learning than the carbon. The b4.2 to my mind doesn't have any real strength upgrades other than titanium turnbuckles. Most upgrades are for track handling.

Hi

Here are a couple of strength upgrades for B4 based cars, I suppose they will fit the b4.2
