i dont really get too hung up on whether a chassis is widely considered competitive or not.
im sure if i compare it to a 2011/2012 $500 chassis, sure it wont be as competitive, but the guy sitting in top spot in our A final could probably take a used TC3 from here, any tc3, not touch a damn thing on it, and kick most of our asses.
I dont have the money for a new chassis, and id rather have MORE chassis than just one really good one to run more classes and get MORE track time.
i managed to get a pancar servo saver to work by switching to the dual bellcrank steering system. though the saver is quite soft. would probably deflect in a lot of corners.
are the taem magic ones stiffer?
