I cut 2 of these, added weight till it snapped and did the same to the other stock chassis that warped till it bent. This one took 20% more weight till it snapped -v- bent the aluminum. Now my car is WAY under and still have not put titanium hinge pins in.

After I am done with my club track car, my goal is to have the car at 1600 grams race ready.

Why.......I don't know...because I can.
my friends say I have way too much time on my hands

Somebody needs to give me a job.
i think the chasis looks cool as shit. but i wonder how it will handle, it might be way too stiff??? let us know, but tight work!!!
