Question....

How come the top deck is counter sunk? I thought the floating idea was better. Or is that the issue with tweaking?

I found that racing the T2 on a medium to high traction track the adjustable top deck and chassis was great! The car had just a little to much grip with the high flex. Added some screws and the grip was reduced. Very trick chassis!

Mongo,

During a hard hit or say a slight tap on the board sideways......with the Multiflex Chassis you had a tendency to tweak the car!!

Now with the counter sunk top deck's, and front/rear shock towers you have a less degree of tweaking the car.
Also one key thing to remember is the BMI Chassis compared to the Xray chassis is the type of carbon fiber that is used on both chassis.

I know Bmi's carbon fiber Chassis is made of alternating fiber layers that are layered in a 0 deg to a 90 deg, and to a 45 deg weave.....which makes the chassis very rigid and less prone to tweaking the car.

Feel free to pm if you have any other questions........also feel free to visit BMI's website @ www.bmiracing.com !!

Best Regards,

So basically as a sponsored driver you are saying the stock T2 chassis basically tweaks pretty easy

"• XRAY Anti-Tweak Smart Design - chassis and top deck are designed to prevent the car from becoming tweaked during a crash" from teamxray.com

Feel free to give the BMI chassis a try.......than make your own opinion!!

Nexus,

Thanks for the BIG WOODEN SPOON ........it is just my humble opinion that while running the stock xray chassis on asphalt rubber tire may be the better of the two, although while running on a foam carpet track the BMI Carpet Version Chassis is far much better of a chassis in the matter of tweak!!

BMI doesn't sponsor me (I am trying to get some free stickers though) I will agree that the quality of the carpet chassis kit is awesome. The car was more reactive on the track and I have never had to reset the tweak.

Does anybody know if the T2 kit standard outdrives can be purchased by themselves? All that I've seen are the ones for the one-way and multi diffs. I really don't want to purcahse an additional complete diff everytime that I bend/break an outdrive.

My gawd, how hard are you hitting the boards? I've never broke a Xray steel diff. I see the guys with alum outdrives do it all the time.

Any ways, this was the closest I found.

305010 Alu Diff Long Output Shaft Hard Coated
305020 Alu Diff Short Output Shaft Hard Coated

No idea if they are still available.

Actually, I broke a plastic steering block and the CVD bent the stock outdrive in the carnage that followed. I bent it back in place, but was wanted to get another one for the spare parts box in case it broke and there wasn't one readily available.

not to start any conflict but a few of the xray drivers have changed to my chassis kit for the added rigidty,performance,and because it doesnt tweak.

i see what xray was doing and commend them for doing something different but it does tweak pretty easy.it is also difficult to put together and have everything be straight.i know alot of people are going to disagree but if you go to extremes like myself with assembly and inspection,you will see this also.it is an excelent car and does run great with the stock chassis on it.i just tried to cure a few of the problems that i found and added some features that have seemed to help performance.

Don't worry Jason, when you are on top like Xray you automatically become the target of everyone else. Like Biggie said "Mo money, Mo problems".
