I have done that very same thing to two of the Graphite/lightweight chassis on my X10. If I hadn't seen/done it for myself I would have thought it would be impossible as thick as the composite is in that area. I even busted the diff cover as well, it was mangled! I don't feel so bad now knowing that someone else has done the exact same thing, lol.

I did one years ago, but the front end flew off into a bush :D

If it helps the car felt awesome to drive again after not driving one for about 7 years! :lol:

Good job Adam has a couple of spare Chassis mind
