We're doing as much as we can to limit damage to these known-to-be-fragile cars. There will be some damage; we all know that. Thanks for pointing out the fragility of the chassis behind the axle on that car, tin_indians.
One thing that I'm toying with is to allow replacement nose pieces to be sent in with the cars. In general, in a front-end collision, the nose piece is the "buffer" between the wall and the front axle assembly; it usually goes before the front axle goes. The front diffusers on most Scaley F1 cars are fairly easily changed out with a single screw. On some the diffuser screws directly into the nose, on others the diffuser and nose screw directly into the body. I'm still mulling that over, as I don't think that all Scaley F1 cars 2005-2017 have that feature and I don't want to create an unlevel playing field in the interest of trying to preserve front axle assemblies.
Thoughts...…….?
