xxx-s chassis milling
Is there anyone out there that mills XXX-S chassis. If so who and how can I get a hold of them. I would like to see some of their work also.
Thanks,
Greg

Hey Bill I also have always used the Protoform Alfa but I understand it is no longer going to be produced! Checked out all the local shops yesterday couldnt find any but Steve at HW had one unpainted personal he sold me. The question is, what body do you think will work at the tracks we race at ? You know I use all your setups so I might as well use the same body just cant bring myself to paint them ORANGE LOL. Hope to see you this weekend .Thanx Bill

FYI...I believe Matt Francis said that he has something like three different bumper profiles to align to various car bodies. I gotta do that.
Oh, please paint it bright so I can see it...And not run into it...

Not as much as the Protoform Alfa. The Losi Skoda does have some usefulness though.
