Default 42296 - Tamiya 419 Aluminum Chassis

Has anyone tried this chassis on their car, especially for carpet racing? Our local track had pretty low grip carpet over the last 2 yrears, but recently more 1/12th scale racers have been running and the car starts to generate crazy levels of grip by mid race day. Traction roll is a major problem by round #3. I think the thinner/ heavier lower plate will lower the CG considerably and any reduction in grip caused by the stiffer chassis could be overcome with softer springs.

Any thoughts?
