I don't recall... how much is the bmi chassis? Also, does it work well on med grip asphalt?

Thanks,

Ray - Car looks good...would like to see how well that fares with the carbon chassis from AE..

Picked up a swaybar and some aluminum goodies for mine. Cant wait to outfit some of the stuff tommorow..

Eric - that chassis is purpose built for carpet if I understand everything correctly...

Where do you race in AZ? SRS I assume...

hey guys,i will hopefully be testing it out on asphalt this weekend if i can kick this flu.the car is very stiff.i have had alot of good experiences with my tc3 chassis on asphalt with it being a 3mm chassis and top deck.it was a little more tough to get the car setup but when i got it right it was much faster than when i had it flexing with a 2mm upper deck.i think this tc4 kit is going to be a winner.lets see how carpet testing goes with ray.i will keep you posted on the asphalt testing.

Nope, I'm in Tucson. I race at HTUSA on wednesdays, and an occasional Sat. (if can get all of my honey and dady-do's done in time. Therefore, I don't get up to SRS much.

Lazy-strickly form a grab it and twist it test-its noticeably stiffer than a Graphite TC4-which is how this car started life. And-its only 2.5mm CF top and bottom. Right now Jason and I dot think it even needs 3mm chassis or top deck-though thats surely an option for later. But-like the BMI Xray-its so stiff-its hard to imagine it needing to be any more rigid. And as we know-the thinner the CF (especially the top deck)-the lower the CG will be.

Come on Ray lets here some test results. Looks top notch as usual Ray.

How does it balance out? Or have you done this yet?

Its not been on scales yet-but it did tweak out perfect as pictured with all shock collars at the same # of rotations down.

Its not been on the track yet. I was just lamenting on the BMI thread-I have been on the track only two race days since the Champs I think-I cannot recall anymore than that. And i missed most of the races pre-champs too-so basically in last two months-I have hardly driven. I am going NUTS!!! Test day for TC4 is tomorrow night!!

Hmm that would be nice to see if Jason or you Ray would try a 3mm lower with a 2mm upper
just some food for thought

Honestly I ran the kit setup and made few little adjustments... It should be pretty smooth out of the box...
