I race on oxide carpet and am thinking about getting a 22 3.0. Most people run a lay down at my club. The tlr laydown costs $180 or I could get a $80 exotek lay down tranny that is aluminium. So my question is: the aluminium lay down would stiffen the chassis more than the tlr one. Would I want a stiffer chassis for high grip or a more flexible one? Thanks.

Why not get a kit specifically designed for carpet?

Chassis flex is synonymous with traction. So if your surface is low grip you'd want the chassis to flex more. Assuming the carpet you're on is super high traction you'll probably want a stiffer chassis. That's why some companies sell hard plastics.

I run the tlr laydown conversion and it feels great on carpet, traction rolls are almost non-existent. There isn't very much flex with the laydown chassis but you can still get the stiffer mud guards, aluminum servo mounts and also the new x factory rear brace, if you want to go stiffer. I only use the laydown and aluminum servo mounts and it feels pretty good.

Too many varables to be an exact science. See what others have that is working.
