Default Worst Jato crash

So today I smashed my Jato into a parked car probably doing 60ish. In one quick second the jato exploded. Here is the list thus far; Broken upper and lower bulkhead, broken servo bell crank, broken upper chassis, cracked body, broken tie rod, cracked wheel, broken bumper, and bent lower chassis. Anyone beat that???

Dang sounds like it's pretty well tore up.I have a Jato and S-Maxx and have torn up the Maxx more times than I have the Jato.But then again the Maxx was my first nitro guess I learned to drive a bit better by the time I got the Jato.

Similar to eckosof's crash except luckily I didn't bend my chassis but more front end damage (due to stock parts). Put a good $150 or into it.
