Minor damage is a definite possibility if you go off at Lovelock or Hawthorne at speed though.
Actually, their springs were too stiff, and the new tires too sticky. The car's high CG toppeled it over in the 1st corner because there was no give in the suspension to slow the moment that turned it over. Luckily it was a fully caged track car, and no one was hurt. But it did total the car.
