They used to make a tool back when they used to race dirt oval sprint cars to straighten out bent dogbones but its not worth it, that thing is a pretzel.

randman i talked to Victor from warpspeed. And i had sent him my yokomo to make a new chassis I was going with the same idea with milling the chassis out for the gear box's and motor plate. Victor told me that doing that is not good for the chassis will still flex he also told me that when you break the top layer of graphite to mill out its not good for the chassis. I now have a new 3mm and top deck 3mm with the new graphite gear boxs and the top deck holds in graphite this baby is a ROCK!!!!!!!! no flex in this chassis
