The 2.5 mm main chassis frame from Cyclone TC is discontinued from hotbodies!!!

I broke my chassis and now i do not have any part for replacing!

No that's not true. We still carry and support the parts.
We have the kit and the main chassis #67702 in stock.

Please feel free to ask me if you have any concerns.
Thank you.

Cutting the top and middle (rear) deck is very straight forward.

I was obviously asking for the right model...

For those who have try, how does it impact the behaviour on the car? At low-speed and at high speed?

This TC-D tells me to build a homemade chassis plate and resurrect the Pro-2 Myth!!! Mouahahahahahaha

They usually mark things as discontinued if they will not carry it anymore. It doesn't really reflect that the manufacture as discontinued the product, just they have made the decision to not stock it anymore.

thats Korey's way of saying there's a new car coming without really saying it.

Disclaimer: The statement made above in no way reflects the opinions of Hot Bodies or Korey Harbke. I have no clue if a new car is coming from Hot Bodies or not. I'm just giving Korey a hard time.
