Ok I'll be the one to catch heat for another thread. I'll start with my carnage, I sheered the studs off my high steer arms and broke the throttle stop so it idles at 500rpms now. The good news was that I was able to find a set of studs and rode till 2:30 on sat night at ure. Sorry no pics
 
My Suzuki X-90 ....also know as the :gay: little car took out the passengers front tire on one of the first big jumps and I had to 3-wheel it through 3/4 of the track with lots of "off the track" action because of the obvious steering issues.

not so far, I went back to race camp and took the filter off, turns out it had dented the lip and caused the gasket to come out of place, I bent it back put the gasket back in, it fired back up with good o/p, but I didn't run it too long. It started to loose power on the back half of the track and by the last hill it was close to lockin up. I have no idea how the front in stayed under the jeep with both uppers broke

The axle will only roll back so far until the coil perches hit the lower control arms, and the track bar helps out a little as well as the shocks. I've broke both my uppers out crawling before and didn't know it until I got back to the trailer at the end of the day.
