It was good meeting you also Jason. I wish we could have talked more...

i raced the BMI chassis kit on Saturday and it somehow had seemed to tweak after some hard hits. i'm going to try it this Sunday again.

if you are getting a tweak after a hard hit,i would check to make sure the screws that hold the upper bulkheads didnt slip.i would also check the screws to make sure they didnt bend a little. other than those possibilities i cant really think of anything else that can move.the flathead screws are the most solid way of mounting all of the parts.im sure you will find it buddy.if you need any help let me know.

Due to the enourmous number of requests for chassis kits. We have done one extra sheet of Pickles chassis and top decks. This means there are 5 and only 5 complete kits left (although there are still plenty of extra top decks).

We may not produce any more for awhile as the carpet season is coming to a close and the asphalt season is beginning. So this could be your last shot at getting one for awhile.

Please email, call or IM me if you want in on this.

Make sure the screws that hold the arms to the bulkheads are not bent. This will cause a tweak as well.

is the chassis actually tweaked on the scales or tweak station? I can't see that happening on a non-multiflex car. If you blew a bearing out in the back of the car, it feels like savage tweak. The oe bearings aren't the most durable. Might be worth a look.
