Isn't it already been done? Alu chassis at least is done.
I still have a lot of work to do with this project :)

Now I don't need to worry about the wobbling motor mount anymore.
Maybe I'll cut chassis rear end a little shorter.

EDIT: This mod not needed anymore. Check out page 9.

Shortened chassis 15mm from back (white line). All drawings updated.
Visited track today. Car handles better every time.

Seems to work nicely. 1000+ full speed test laps done. Zero broken parts.
I have tested B4 front rims with narrow and wide tyres. B2/B3 front rims with narrow tyres feels like the best option at the moment.
Added 2 shims to front shocks and changed 30wt oils to 25wt in all shocks.
Haven't tested B3 arms yet.
I just got my B4.1 Worlds ready yesterday. It's going to be a good reference.

Here is a pic of Niki, Jirka and me Jerzi.
The Finish vintage dudes.
I really dont know who is the most "into" vintage dude in Finland, but I think Jirka is.
If you have waited 2 years for an original sticker so you have to be an winner :lol:
we had with Jirka an very nice time on the track yesterday when we had offroad competition.
In the pic Jirka have my rc10 and Niki has his b2 carbon car and I have in my left hand my canon camera :wink:

Nice time at the track indeed. I'm really happy with the result.
"Winter Jumps" is Finnish national indoor offroad series. Category "M2S-10" stands for 2WD 17.5T Stock.

The shape of the chassis almost looks like the RB6....does that mean RB6 bodies will work on the chassis?

I have absolutely no idea. All B2 and B3 bodies works for sure because NIX9200 chassis shape is the same as ASC9200 - only cut to the width of "original Graphite" 107mm.
Print chassis drawings "NIX9200.pdf", "NIX9200P6.pdf" and "NIX9200P14.pdf" to paper in 1:1 scale and put RB6 body on top of them - then you know!
