I was looking at the photos that were posted and noticed that the "tube insert" that was included in "proper" TKM chassis was not eveident in the photo.

If I had a Storm, the first thing I would do is use an insert. These were allowed as mods in the earlier TKM regs when some original chassis didn't have them and they started cracking !! - sounds familiar ?

(ps. I do think that the welding on some of the Storm chassis is terrible and probably contributes (HAZ, stress raisers etc) to some of the cracks)
