I did some water sanding to my chassis with 400 fine cloth sand paper on all the batt slots and the edge of the chassis .. let dry, wipe everything down then allpied CA glue to seal all the edges ... came out great ..

The little extra don't hurt. I bet your BMI chassis setup is great looking and super smooth with that little wet sanding.

I'm very impressed still that when my chassis showed up I didn't have hardly any prep work. Of all the chassis's in 18 years of racing this was the best one I have had because all other chassis's I have tried I had a ton of work to do on them.

How about you, N4S, will you be there? lol. The more people, the better chance of me not being in a heat with Evan. lol. His car makes a really good ramp to fly through the air, barrel roll, and then land lid down on the backstraight so hard that your car bounces back onto the wheels... I think one of the stick figures needs a trip into the port-o-potty. Don't worry Stephen - you're safe (for now).

I know how that feels because by the time I race again it will be a total of a month off. Less than two weeks left til I can race.
