Default wrecking your xmod

hey guys, my mustang has been pretty much knocked over and wrecked to many times, the body is all worn out, but the chassis is in great conditon.

i can always buy a new body, so it doesnt concern me.

my question is, when i wreck it into a wall, does that knock things in my chassis loose, or does everything stay pretty solid?

Should stay pretty solid. Xmods can take pretty good beatings as long as you don't blow it up with a bomb or something. If anything does come loose, you'll definitely know it, but it's usually a simple re-soldering job.

im not trying to destroy it, i dont have many places to run it so i end up losing tracting and smashing into a concrete wall sliding sideways.

what do you mean by project? i would definatly repaint it, if the plastic body wasnt warped and starting to crack.

the ONLY way to tell if for you to inspect the car and make up your own mind if anything is loose or moved

i can fix anything mechanical, because when something breaks i can just order a GPM part for it.

im worried about the electronics, should anything on the circuit board come loose?

If one wrecks the front tires/wheels too much, the steering servo gears can become stripped and get stuck in one position.

Most of the time, the body is there to protect the chassis so your chassis should pretty much be 99% safe from any damage when a body is on.
