well I ripped the upper right A-arm completely out of my frame! and thats not one of those brakes where you get to replace it with a cool aftermarket part unless you want to spend 1000 on frame

Worse than you trail, I was BORROWING a friend's 300ex and he was not with us when I hit a tree wound out in 2nd gear (maybe 15-20mph?). He had a winch on his 300ex that he made a custom mount behind the front bumper and it along with the bumper was destroyed. The bad part was that when we got back from riding another one of the guys I was riding with called him to see what he thought about it before I had even called him to tell him it happened. But other than a taking a good ribbing and a lighter wallet on my part all was OK. That's a true friend for you!
