I have seen photos of a carbon chassis for this car here on RCTech. Any idea where I could find one?

The only "other" chassis I personally have seen for them is the SNR graphite.
Didn't know there was a carbon option out there.

Can someone post a link of which velcro strap from tower would accommodate two 3s lipo's. Would the one from Associated work?

How do you get a 1:1 gear ratio?

I purchased a 44t spur gear to realize it doesn't fit the gear holder.

Even if you mod the aluminum spool to fit the smaller spur the center bore is larger than it needs to be so you have to be perfect otherwise it'll end up out of center.

Where can I find a spur with a smaller center bore? Ill use the count sunk holes to screw into the spur to stop it from rotating freely.

Also is there a way to relocate the motor to the front driver side to accommodate two packs?

Check out the center spool options over at RcMonster, might have what you are looking for.

Thanks. What size is the shaft the spool goes on between the eclips?

I found some spurs and pinions in all different sizes teeth count bore sizes. Also made of different materials. Steel. Stainless. Aluminum. Haven't checked if there is plastic

Essentially the spur design for this car is a pinion as it has a set screw to lock into place.

These could work if you want to get down to a 19t spur and a 46t pinion. I just don't know the diameter of the shaft.

Looks great but you need a wing or else it will have horrible traction in the back. You need that down force pressure the rear wing creates. Unless she's going to be a shelf queen than it's no big deal. Just my .02.

There are every now and then at Mike's Hobby Shop in Porter, TX. They used to run Inferno GT1 and GT2 nitro....then heard about people running OFNA's and electric conversions. No official race class as far as I know. I spoke with the manager of that track who used to be at Mike's for about 12 years.

If you're down to run 1/8 GT on-road maybe like a little shakedown run at Mike's PM me! I just built my OFNA DM-1 Spec E with parts I had laying around.

Running stock gearing...MMM/2200kv...Sweep 55 shores hard compound....7955TG...and really that's about it. Just moved my ebuggy stuff over. I don't think I even have a CC BEC on it lol.

Do you have any off road rigs too we can go out on a weekend and just do some runs on and off road!

Hit me up

I'm so jealous of you Ofna guys getting to run a rear diffuser. I wonder what it would take to fit one to my IGT2...
