Any info on when this is going to happen? This season already?

P.S.: Jason, did you receive my PM 2 days ago?

I will need to find out when it will be in effect. I will keep you posted.

As for the 2S chassis, if there are enough of them in demand to warrant making a short run i can do it.

Looks nice but how is it mounted on the chassis? is there a strap of some sort to hold down the foam bumper? otherwise the bodypost get the full brunt of the impact (even with foam bumper) and the foam can shoot upwards. Hitting a hard wooden beam full on with the weight of roughly 1130+ grams behind it is hard lol. (i know, you should not hit it in the first place)

It is actually the identicle shape of the carbon fiber bumper that lays beneath it. The foam bumper protrudes 1mm all around the lower C/F bumper. It is supported extremely well.
