Re: The official "lightweight" chassis thread.
That would be me, I sent you a pm with a pic.
Just so you know we do have a rule about sales outside the buy/sell/trade area and that area requires approval. I have that chassis listed in my for sale thread but it can't be accessed without approval

Re: The official "lightweight" chassis thread.
I think we need to do a lightweight chassis build off only using ones lightened already and not make a light one.No abusing chassis guys
Paint it build it as you like!
And how about the AERODYNAMIC BODIES ve ended up with over the years windows cut out body panels cut out !! Wheels drilled arms drilled out.don

Re: The official "lightweight" chassis thread.
Someone needs to make a tube-chassis car frame out of paper-clips. That would be uber-light.

Re: The official "lightweight" chassis thread.
Make something that's so light, you're guaranteed a win...
....just make sure you don't crash or touch a competitor's car.

Re: The official "lightweight" chassis thread.
DOH! You would have to fight me for it anyway! It's been on my watch list for quite a while...and I've never seen one nor parts for one come up!
I'd love to find a chassis to copy, as they were just 12e parts from what I read
