Jason or Tim,
Any update on my chassis? No hurry on it at all, just curious as to some status. Give me a shout.

Thanks,
Blake

The chassis is by far the nicest I have used in 18 years. The milling quality, especially on the TC3 chassis battery slots is what does it for me. No grinding, sanding, or hacking to get my batteries to fit nice. Man I always hated to have to file a new chassis down to make batteries fit.

Yeah, I agree. I dont want to file my battery slots 45º to make the cells fit nicely. BMI has it going on!

John check with Jason on the Xray chassis. I think the Xray chassis is not cut like mine. I thought the reason was because the batteries fit lower in the chassis and then the stock battery hold down don't hold the batteries in as well. I would still have Jason cut the chassis like the TC3 one and just use some sticky foam on your battery hold downs to snug up the fit. HPI makes some nice sticky type foam that would be great for doing that.

I would think if Jason has them in stock about a week or so. No keep in mind it might be a tad longer since he is hurt and that he was waiting for more colored graphite to come in.

Hi Everyone:

I talked to Jason yesterday and he is still not able to get around very well yet. the graphite should show up today and we are hoping to get them made up ASAP.

Blake:

I will call Jason again to see how things are going on your chassis

Fire:

I think the Yokomo Chassis will come in all colors as soon as testing is done.

WVracer:

again it all depends on how soon Jason is able to get around but it should be soon. You can call the provided phone number to place a order or e mail me with all the info and I willl call Jason and place it for you. ( I call Jason most every day)

so far any movement as resulted in torn stitches also the pain killers are having some side effects also. he has been to the shop but only for a short time.

We hope to be close to being back on track with both the current chassis and upcoming chassis releases ASAP.

as always I will try to be here to help out as much as I can.

Thanks
