losi chassis question
would running an 8ight 1.0 TFT chassis on an 8ight 2.0e race roller make much of a difference? i know the 2.0 chassis what like 2 or 5 mm longer is that really gonna make a big difference? other than that what is the difference in the chassis? I know i can get a nip 1.1 TFT for like 20-25 and a 2.0 TFT for like 60-80 so that why I ask is the difference worth the money?

Wont fit...... Drive shafts are longer.

The center rear drive shaft does fit. In fact i was able to remove the aluminum rear chassis brace due to it being longer. The longer shaft didn't let it pop out of the center diff out drive. Which was a problem and hence the aluminum brace. So run the plastic chassis bace and let her flex. I could also feel the difference.

Why do you want to go backwards, you have a 2.0 but want a 1.0 chassis to save a few bucks..... By the time you get the other part there is your 2.0 chassis......AND Its a HUGE difference in performance between the different length chassis. SMH
