so you would just trim off the sides of the chassis?

Jim, I know you are looking down from above. Hard to believe your build was done 16 years ago, and it turned out really well. I'm pleased to see that you didn't trim the sides of the chassis. Since nobody ever answered your question the CC RPM Worlds was based on the '91 Worlds Stealth (2nd gen?) buggy that AE developed for the loamy track at Sterling Heights. RPM developed the '91 Worlds front end kit for AE team drivers that weren't running a Stealth buggy.
