Does anyone recognize this chassis?

Post by THEYTOOKMYTHUMB »

It's an oval chassis I run on one of my RC10s. I've had it so long I can't remember the manufacturer. It's more rigid and durable than anything else I have come across. It can be set very long which helps in hi-speed applications. For some reason it's really bugging me lately that I can't remember who makes it. Andy's or Sassy maybe?? It is an oval chassis, but I moved the battery back to the middle since I don't race oval with it. Bought it in maybe 90-91. I only have one picture on this computer and it may not show it well enough. Thanks in advance.

That doesn't sound familiar, but that doesn't mean it isn't. It was a long time ago. It is set up for mid-motor mount, but I recently drilled new holes and turned it around just for the hell of it. That piece of info may help the id.

raborn is the only one i remember having 2 set of front suspension mounting points.

does composite craft or maybe lightspeed ring a bell?

Now that you mention Composite Craft I think that might be it. It could be that Raborn too though because it does have mounting options in front and rear. I think Composite Craft though. I know the shop I raced at then carried Composite Craft stuff. They were a pretty high end company back in the day. I wonder if they're still around?? Off to search...

I would say CC based on how the surface looks.
