I've broken most of the plastic parts in crashes or just a mere wipe-out that involves hitting a bump. (The only plastic parts that I haven't broken are the rear a-arms and the rear hub carriers). Makes me think of how much of the car I've replaced lol.
Every single drivetrain part can fail in normal running. (idler gear. diff gear, spur gear, differential, slipper clutch, drive shafts and wheel pins)

First upgrade to:

Drive train:

1. Robinson racing "absolute" spur gear (also fits assciated stealth buggy)
2. slipper clutch bushings
3. carbide diff balls

Plastic:

1. aluminum front bulkhead
2. aluminum knuckle arms

The list of all the parts that should be upgraded is overwhelmingly long and expensive (may as well buy another car or two by then), but these I think are the most essential. Welcome to the brushless world!
