thanks impactplayr,
still running the plastic chassis. the carbon pan alone is worth more than the whole car and until im much better at it i dont really want to spend too much money. the fibreglass chassis kit is not too much more than the plastic one so that might be the direction i go.I'm doing quite badly with the car at the moment. when it was a hatchback it was keeping up with the pack, winning some, losing some. now with the foam tyres, which are 50% wider than the little rubber jobbies it had when it was a hatchback its sliding all over the place. we are racing on fairly smooth bitumen and so i figure i should go with a softer tyre.
if im lucky i didnt bust my axle then maybe i should stick with a plastic t-bar? i think i'll give the carbon fibre axle a miss then!!
