Okay so what have you broken and how??

2 body shells - general bashing esp. skate park
1 body shell mount - skate park
1 snapped axle cup - driving up a tree
1 bent dog-bone - trying to do an aesthetically pleasing bounce off a wall
1 lower suspension mount - disagreement with lamppost
1 60mm lower suspension pin - ditto
2 lower shock fittings - too much jumping, not enough landing
2 worn axle cups - general bashing
4 bent flat head screws - general bashing
2 LiPo batteries - cables torn loose when caught in body shell cracks :(
1 camera - trying to film close up drifts (thankfully just popped back into place :shifty:)

....in about 20 batteries worth. The LiPo batteries / camera / lamppost scenarios I really should have avoided :oops:

I don't have pics, but I've broken 3 body mounts and 2 shock ends. I switched to the optional tall body mounts because they're thicker and added some proline screw caps.
 
1 shock casing - descending a 20ft rock slab.

I am a bad person. Still it's an excuse to upgrade to alu shocks....

I forgot to add that I've melted several slipper clutches.
 
I'm working up to that! Got a spare just in case. Gonna go through the outer diff gears soon (dunno the exact names) from general wear and tear I guess....
 
There tuff little rigs. The XS jumps like a bloody trooper
I have broken these parts off top of my head-

Couple of bodies, 1x A arm, 1x A arm hinge pin, 1 x slipper clutch,
4 x axel cups, 4 x bent dog bones which is not to bad imo
