Hey guys. In the process of building my Porsche 997 Proxy NSR 997 I encountered a problem. I have broken the NSR guide drop arm twice. I was using the green extra hard chassis and the red drop arm. I was also using a height trimmed & shortened Slotting Plus SP101004 deep wood guide. In the process of testing I have broken the round head off of 2 of the red drop arms. My guides were on the longer side. I broke one on my fairly tight routed track and another at Cgyracer's Mid-BC routed track. Both happened during a snap swing of the back end of the car.
The drop arm was fully secured with the NSR screw as supplied.
Has anyone else broken a drop arm? If so, what guide did this happen with?
As an aside I've also broken a Scalextric Legends chassis using the same guide. I also think I've broken another chassis as well but can't remember which one.
I'm wondering if this is a weak NSR part or if the guide is the issue? I've been using the Sloting Plus guide almost exclusively for 1.5 yrs. However am now not sure where the issue lies.
Any insight would be appreciated.
