No idea.. I never ran my F201 at the track.. so I haven't really hit it hard..

I do have the reinforced suspension arms at all 4 corners.. so that should help..

But you need to realize that it is an open wheel car.. i.e., it does not have those big foam bumper / touring car body for protection...

hey lunchboxer. Ive been invollved with my buggy, but wanna get the F201 again. Would you say its as durable, and handles as well as your average intermediate touring car (TC4 RTR for example, or the team verison (not factory team)?

Yeah, even though it is a "F-1", it is actually 4WD.. so it is more like a 4WD touring car.. LOL!!
