Re: The official "lightweight" chassis thread.
I thought this car on ebay deserved a spot in this thread. I actually like the concept and it would look sweet if pulled off a little cleaner.

I liked that typo, the car weighing "31 lb 5 oz". Wow, talk about your weight GAIN, not loss!clm wrote:Just found this thread due to the recent bump... that one up there reminds me of America's got talent for some reason... [X]

Re: The official "lightweight" chassis thread.
