If you remember the name of that someone, you'll have the chance to win an empty can of red Lexan paint.

check out mistercrash's build. He uses it but says that it bends some. I plan on buying it this summer. Hopefully I wont regret it!

i hope pbmaxx decided agianst it...i don't know about anyone else, but i don't think i'd ever buy a chassis after someone said it bent "some".

A couple guys on a French Revo forum in France call it the ''chassis guimauve'' which means, ''marshmallow chassis''

great description.

i found a few videos on youtube of it and it looks like people were driving it very gingerly.

i'm kinda bummed that GorillaMaxx discontinued to make the Revo version, but would like to see flm take a shot at it.

all you need to do is add the spacers in front of the doors and it gives you another quarter inch or so to use.

These are Traxxas spacers? I looked at the ERBE exploded view but couldn't see anything listed. You don't have a part number do you? I'm in desperate need of that 1/4" for my project truck and I'd like an alternative to weakening the doors since I'm going for speed and already imagining some bad crashes. lol

They are the shims to adjust bump steer. They come with the hollow ball set, part # 5355.

I see. Thanks so much for the part number crash! My 3S packs are just shy of fitting and I really didn't want to buy the KD chassis just to have more battery options.
