I'm running out of extra arms. I'll see how the 20min arms work out. I can always throw them back in the pot and boil 'em longer.

Went to the clay track today. Managed to throw the crt.5 into a huge cartwheel trying to jump the quad (30ft out of a corner). I broke a front C-hub and bearings in the steering knuckle. The front arm survived great. This is only the 2nd time I've broken a C-hub and I've broken at least 6 front arms in that time. So, I think the 20min boil helped save the arm. I did not notice any odd handling issues, but I also did not get to drive it as much as I wanted. Hopefully, I'll test it some more this week.

I have been having much better luck with the boiled arms. Not sure if 20 min is required. 15 may be enough to take the edge off the brittlness and still be pretty stiff.
