I'll take a look for the CD/Jump drive when I get back from the SC Showdown in Wisconsin. I notice that Dustin Evans had his SCTE chassis milled as well while at Trackside

Just a note regarding the milling of the stock chassis
We can offer that service , they will be lighter, but they will still only have the limited life, and not to mention you will lose a lot of strength,
being the stock chassis is only made of Alclad,
We went that rout many years ago, milling stock chassis,
but the overall experiance was a big disappointment..

x2. cant wait until i get it. I dont really mind the steep price as it looks good and im sure it will work for what is worth. shoot alot of us pay 40- 60 bucks for just the turnbuckles and thats not even 1/4 the material compared to the chassis.

That chassis looks sweet! Almost a shame to get it dirty.

I will post the difference when I get mine steve. Cant wait to get it! To me I think this will be better then any other. I thin if you go out and mill the stock one, it will probably create alot of weak points. Ive noticed alot of people bend the stock chassis without milling it, so I wouldnt take that chance.

Cant wait to get mine in.

Hi Fangs As I stated we still are fine tuning. The current weight is almost
2.oz lighter Vs the stock config. I am tearing down a brand new one tonight
just so we can have accurate numbers to compare . Just a note all of our local
racers that have held the chassis say Wow that is light.
I will keep you guys posted, as I now have the SCTE "Bug" And want to get
mine in Fighting shape...

Ran yesterday in a long time at West Coast RC and got a brand new motor from the owner of the track(Danny) that he makes. Im pretty sure its a 3pole motor but doesnt say the kv because he likes to keep it a secret but this is their 4.0 motor and ran great and has tons of power. If you want one, call westcoastrc.com and they will ship it, it cost 137.

Team Icon motor - 4.0

3 pole? Nice, right in between! This could be the best of torque and runtime in one nice little package! The price seems high given the current cream of the crop motors are less expensive, Tekin, Novak, Lrp, Castle! It would have to win a championship for me to pay that or at least compete at the highest level and be in the top 5 lol! Times are tough out here on these streets ya know what im sayin playa? Lol! I need video with proof of domination!
