Funny you should say that... I used to spend quite a bit when I first got in to rc, but I guess my driving skill has improved and I stopped hiting stuff. I have never really had ultra-heavy trucks so they generally hold up fine with stock parts. My bash area is usually free of cars and trees, and I make sure my tires are glued and everything is bolted together right, which is often the cause of breakage. I did stick a tire or a truck really good yesterday while testing the lst2, but it is a solid truck and I hit the tire pretty square. Had to dodge a moving car, and the tires were sliding in some gravel. Plus that truck is only doing about 37mph, waiting on some larger pinions.!

Funny how when you stop hitting immovable objects things stop breaking.....

I hardly mess up anything anymore either. I just try to avoid cluttered areas to run in. I am managing a construction project building an Airplane Hangar/Office right now and got to run inside the hangar portion which is 9500 square feet. That was a blast drifting around on the smooth cement.......
No worries about hitting anything in that space!
