Here's a pic of the straightened chassis. I will be replacing the chassis anti bending rod with rigid ones as opposed to the flexible one which got torn out of the ball socket.

And that was straightened out in another 5 minutes by yet another pair of helpful hands :harhar: .  The shell mounting holes were also ripped apart but have repaired those by sticking shaped offcuts under the hole area with Shoe Goo. All I'm waiting on are 2 chassis anti bending rods to replace the broken rear one and good front one from the flexible type to the rigid ones. Hopefully be racing again on Sunday :thumbsup:

Died running the car in the backgarden. I'm still trying to decide what to replace it with. Thankfully there's no damage to the remaining electrics as far as I can tell.
