Gen's Jrx Pro project

Great! it seems that the X2 chassis is good for short technical coarse and the Pro looks good on long straightaways.....correct me if im wrong!

Its been too long since i've driven a graphite chassis JRX2 to comment first hand, but the general consensus seems to be that the 5-link gives lots of rear end traction - so the SWB chassis on a JRX2 is required to get the car to turn sharply. The grip on the rear is reduced with the H-arm set-up of a 'Pro' - so a long chassis is used to tame the steering & add stability over the bumps.

If your track is particularly tight & twisty - it might be best to run H-arm on a SWB chassis?

Here is "the official" bumper between chassis and front bulkhead mod scan:

And here is a little better pics from the 1989 ROAR Nats and 1989 Worlds cars:

To me all the cars above seems to have 30-degrees kickup in the chassis without the bumper mod.
