he is a good guy!

Anyone know if the Shooters chassis will work on the Yokomo car?

I think it will the cuttings look exactly the same...I am also interested:blush: :sweat: :D

yes the shooter chassis will work but if your spending money for a car get the quad twelve not having to tape batteries is worth it wieght in gold!

I ran the Yokomo on carpet for about 4 months...........
Jaco Purple fronts
TRC Granite Rears
30 weight shock oil
green spring
pod-chassis level
middle caster
.20 or .22 springs depending on the carpet
medium hydra lube on the dampner disk
.075 T-bar with the spacers

I am interested in the HPI conversion which is supposed to be released by january...
Hammer Conversion
and into the Riemon partsRIEMON SPEEDWORKS

Worries about the tape or O-rings warping the Carbon Fiber chassis, yet still the allegiance to a frail and flexible hunk of fiberglass for a rear suspension?

If you use an O-ring thats TOO STRONG it will warp the chassis slightly, but it does so perpendicular to the chassis' centerline so it should flex evenly, pulling up both sides of the chassis. Don't leave your batteries in the car between race weekends and an o-ring retention system works fine. It's not like you have to take any screws out or cut two pieces of tape to get the cells out!!!

:lol:

Well since the Shooters chassis works on a Yokomo, I'm goin 1/12 scale :D

cypress wasnt putting them down still i would prefer an oring car over tape it was just a generalisation i didnt say that handling would be shitty because once you set the tweak the warpedge would hardly be noticable!

Anyone know the thickness on the Shooters chassis? I just ordered one.

Hey Ted ,
Sorry about your luck sunday , that A main was brutal , see you at Larrys ...............
Bob :tire:

The Reimon chassis has just enough chassis to mount the pod and the front. Way to weak and flexable. The Quad 12 is still the way to go if you want a T plate car. I'm not just saying this because I drive for doug either. Its just a better chassis. Good weight distribution with very little flex.

I just got back into racing recently and I converted my 12L3 to the Irs rug rat and I tell you to me its the best 12th scale Ive driven I just added the IRS front end and silva Tplate to it and what a diff it made to the car and how adding these parts to the car made a more stable and smoother car.I know im happy with the car and I love driving it just need to get my skills back

Strapping tape is the only thing I will use to secure my batteries now, I've had bad luck with O-Rings and battery straps.

WHICH 1/12 TO BUY....
 

Hello Everyone,

I'm playing with the idea of getting a new 1/12 car. I've been running the Associated RC12L3 for the past two years, but I think it might be a time for change. I mostly run stock if that helps. I would like to know the benefits of switching over to let's say the Rug Rat, or the new CRC T-force or the Trinity reflex 12.

thanks,
