Been a while since I posted any updates. I have been running the truck almost every weekend since I got it and it has held up well. I put a chassis shield on and it did a good job.

Chassis after a day at the track (outdoor, abrasive surface) about 5 packs. Only a few nicks on the leading edge, because I was in a hurry when I applied the shield and didn't overlap it on the edges.
