I have had the lightweight stuff in my BL E and I never broke a part except for when my CVD pins flew out and locked the drivetrain, but that doesnt count, because it put lateral stress on the outputshaft (thats what bent).

I have since gone G2R (check out the GorillaMaxx section here) and I built a E tranny from the ground up. Its just a stock plastic case and slider and everything but with lightweight stuff and UE idlers. I've been driving it VERY hard on pavement and thus far its held up fine...I have a RR slipper too btw...

Then again, my "BL" power is a HV 6.5...
