What kind of cruel track designer puts a pole right in the middle of the racing line??!?!

I doubt any of the AE chassis would have saved you there. There are some aluminum chassis' out there. RCRD makes some really nice ones. I've got one on my B4 right now and I am seriously thinking about putting one on my T4 as well. I like the weight down low on the car.
