I can't wait to test my new BD carpet chassis out. I was fortunate to get a hold of a custom cut BD chassis; it's 3.2mm thick. Has anybody else been able to get a hold of a thicker chassis

More grip is available so less chassis flex is needed.

Asphalt need more flex car to increase overall grip. Maybe that's why Yokomo release BD with 2,5mm chassis and 2mm upperdeck for deck for that reason. Not 3mm chassis like the old SD.
So don't try to stiff your car if you play at low-grip asphalt tracks!!!

dirst time out try the kit settings first... a loose belt might skip under wither heavy braking, i noticed that in tightening the rear belt, the back rotated a bit more, but be careful not to overtighten the belt, the drive train will get heavier.

just to clarify... when using the TC4 bones you have to shave off some material off the pins?
how about when using the stock rear yokomo bones?

Carpet set up?
Any one got a carpet setup for the BD, with the standard chassis? Or do I really need to get a custom chassis?
