Jason,

You get any tighter weave pattern you might as well use kevlar.....
But at least then you coudl market your chassis could be called bulletproof and no lawsuits could be filed against that claim...LOL

Man I tell you it seems that with all the drama of TC as of late, 12th scale designers have really put some great new innovation into this class. I just got into 12th and feel I have neglected my TC for some time....heck last time out at the track I had my new 007 and my new Gen X...Guess what got the track time...Yup Gen X got the race and the 007 got a practice pack ran through it...
Hopefully I can make it out to the carpet track on a practice day so I can learn more about 12th scale setups...Seems tires and weight transfer are where I need the most work.

Thanks guys for keeping this sweet class fun and competative. When I raced sunday I had the pleasure of racing "The Fabulous One" and couple other Fast SoCal guys, needless say I was way off pace for my second 12th scale race.

-Shookie <><

It also tends to be a flatter panel. It is slightly more expensive from what I understand however. Interesting looking ride Jason.

You three will be vary satisfied when they arrive.

I am just getting use to the super easy to adjust front end.

It all no brainer, which if you know me, fits me like a glove. LOL

one of the local hobby shops (in the NY area) got three in last Tuesday... (an hour after I called looking for them) and sold them immediately... they are expecting 4 more soon and I have my name on one... once I get mine I'll post the shop... sorry guys...can't run the risk of missing out again...

all in all they are supposed to hit the shops by the 15th... (shipping on the 11th) CRC sent some cars to Horizon this week so there may be some there.. but the price at Horizon is ridiculous.. full MSRP
