Me too!, I heard One of Hara's chassis was made of fiberglass for maximum flex with 2mm.
So are these for sale or are they one-offs you made?

Ok thanks.

Interesting though, what are you using universals or CVDs?
Im using Unis on the back and CVDs on the front.

I attached a pic of the end of my right rear universal, can anyone figure out what has caused this?

umm hara prolly didnt use all fiberglass, prolly cf w/ some glass inside.


anywayz, the outer layer of graphite sheets can be pretty much anything, so just because its woven doesnt mean much. flat finish like that is achievable with tissue paper.

so haras chassis could be the same graph as before but with tissue paper finish.
its the same was as hpi old purple fleck used to (trinity too).

Did you check the outdrive cup set part 73514 #4, the part that holds the lock nut on the right rear. Is it worn?
You may have to dissasemble the diff to check. Its the only thing I could think of that could do that since it is hollow in the middle with a round edge. I'm not sure if the universals are longer by just a tad and could be rubbing the lock nut holder when the car bottoms out on hard left turns coming out of corners under acceleration.
Other than that, I have no idea what would cause that. Let us know if you find out.

Rc zombies : It's 2 mm thick. Battery hold is widen to support new GP 3700. I met Hara at Reedy race asia , I've show him the sample of material and he confirm that it's same as his car wich he use in Japan National and it's not straight carbon. I saw some straight carbon from Team Muchmore's driver, it's not same in both looks and spec.

Price is not decide yet, may be too expensive for sell . anyway mail me for more info.
