Hey all: what is the hot setup these days? we've seen plastic tub graphite and milled aluminum. Some say aluminum may be just a fad and graphite seems to come and go. What do you all think. Thanks

for 1/10 buggys and stadium trucks plastic tub or aluminum chassis works well. i like the look of the shumacher 2wd buggys that use a aluminum bottom plate and then a partial carbon top plate. 1/10 4wd buggys aluminum, unless you are a perfect driver i think that carbon fiber chassis could break easily in a hard crash. maybe? for 1/8 nitro aluminum is the way to go. 1/8 electric there are plastic but aluminum seems to work better... less breakage. (hb ve8 in mind)

i think that the aluminum vs carbon plastic in 1/10 buggy and st really depends on the driver and the setup.

for sct 2wd sinve most are based off of a buggy or st plastic or aluminum
for 4wd aluminum, but plastic works ok too. losi vs associated
