What do you guys think of this as an upgrade for the 2011

My chassis has had it after a hard year racing, was looking at the 2012 chassis and found this. Looks like they just traced the outline of the 2012 chassis on this

Hi kinga,
I would recomend the smokem fx if your racing on low traction tracks the smokem is a little bit more flexible then a original t3 12 chassis the cso would have even more again and i personally wouldnt want to go any more flex then the smokem chassis.But if the track you drive on has a decent amount of grip the flexier chassis will bog down and the kit chassis would be allot better.

I dont understand how smokem t3fx chassis
http://www.smokem-racing.com/T3FX.html
Would have less flex than this Chassis
http://rcmarket.com.hk/product_info....ducts_id=12591
They are both 2.2 mm thick.
The xray chassis actually says its graphite too
http://rcmarket.com.hk/product_info....ducts_id=12400
I could understand that this chassis would be quite flexy
http://rcmarket.com.hk/product_info....ducts_id=12803
but a little confused.
Our track is medium grip, wouldnt call it high grip though. I like the price of the CSO chassis, and with the aftermarket top deck
http://rcmarket.com.hk/product_info....ducts_id=12592
it would be a very affordable upgrade to the 2012 chassis

Interestingly this just popped up in the news section on redrc and xray site
http://www.teamxray.com/teamxray/new...22163d741052bc
2mm low traction chassis for t3 platform. I guess its xray trying to offer something similar to schumacher with their 2mm soft weave chassis.
I have ordered the cso racing 2.2mm chassis so will let you know how it goes, I figure it should be similar in performance to the xray 2mm chassis
I notice they say to use 0.5mm spacers to raise the bulkheads to the original height, otherwise would be similar to running -0.5mm roll center holders

Is it all more marketing than need ??

motor heat
NEWBIE QUESTION!!!
How much can you expect a motor fan w/heatsink to reduce motor temp in this car?
we run 5min races on a small, technical track. Motor temps are 65deg celsius but wanting to gear out a bit longer than my current setup. Running in the 21.5t class, zero drag brake.
Thanks!

i have temped with and with out without i was about 80 to 85 degrees celsius after 6 minutes with i was getting about 70 to 75 degrees celsius but i guess it depends on track temp but it definantley makes it coler for more fan power run fan of the esc.

Sounds like you could gear a bit taller at the moment without a heatsink etc.

its an lrp x12 stock spec 21.5, through a hobbywing 120a speedy (blinky mode)..
in an lrp forum someone is suggesting not to temp over 95deg which intuitively sounds about right. i'm from an offroad background and have historically temped between 70 - 85 without any problems whatsoever.
however, the wise people at the track suggest aiming to come off at around 50deg celcius. this seems very low to me.. do you need to aim for lower temps with on-road???
