Any time or progress on making a battery retention system for the CRC car similar to the one you designed for you car.

I've seen one of you chassis' a guy that I race with at Competition Hobbies bought one, looks very impressive. I've been trying to find a used 12L3 for cheep so that I can try your chassis, but no luck yet.
Eric,
You are not the only one to ask that. I will borrow a CK from one of my local customers and get some dimensions off of the chassis. He doesn't need it anymore, he stepped up to a Quad12.

Shouldn't be a problem, the posts should be the same as I use on the Q12 plus or minus a little in height and the carbon fiber battery hold down would also be a shorter version of the one on the Q12.

Also, rather than buying a used 12L3 and tossing most of it. Pick up a front end(old school or dynamic, your choice), Micro shock, IRS pod plates and 12 ball diff and you're mostly there.
I've got the carbon fiber parts covered and I make T-bars also.
