How exactly is someone this far along with making a carbon tub and noseplate for an RC10 and this is the first time it’s been mentioned or shown on RC10Talk……
Saw this last night and I totally agree!
Last week Dave "sofaking" sent me an email about it.
Beautiful looking parts but I may have to send him a book on Marketing 101
Some parts arriving. More this weekend....
What did I do? Now tracking down TRX-1 parts.
I will rebuild the ones I regret selling.

Love to build......need to practice painting
Associated - Worlds, B6D
Traxxas - Rad2, TCP, Stampede, Villain IV
Tamiya - CLODBUSTER
As you can see....I sold most of my cars. Funding Pinball now.
This build is going to take some time. I have most of the parts.
Chassis is a little delayed. I will try and build a SRT the next couple weeks to keep me busy.

I definitely liked what I was looking at in the original pictures that posted here, do you like what you’re seeing in this picture…..
Yes I think all will be good. The chassis was already tested by Craig Drescher.

I’m sure maybe they got some dialed in, but in this picture the back end of the tubs look like fruit roll-ups….
I’ve got no experience with molding CF but I’m pretty certain if the sides are standing up the rest of the tub isn’t still pliable.
Don’t get me wrong I’m not hating on this at all. I’m liking it alot, manufacturing even small batch is a bitch. Hopefully they get the kinks sorted out soon enough.
Who do you race for ?
Me……. I race for me.
That’s impossible, I was told you need a sponsor to race.
Hey Cru ! Go balls out
Could be the photos too, I know that I struggle to take a pic that doesn't make it look like there is an inch of toe in sometimes when it's zero
It's time to stand up to the bully. Support the companies that support the industry, not the ones that tear it down. Say no to Traxxas Factory Works website

Nice lil’ parts gather. Your building a B4 trans for this chassis ?
Oh and btw the pic of your WOIN build is great. Came out looking like a real show stopper. Nicely done

Mine always look like the camber was set by a blind person.
Always looking for new and interesting ways to waste money.
I have never really seen a graphite chassis raced or even played with around my area. That begs the question regarding durability or longevity when compared to the tub chassis.
What are the advantages to the graphite chassis? Is it weight? Or...

Some people claim that the aluminum tub chassis is superior and cite the fact that Team Associated won the '93 IFMAR championships with them. As a direct rebuttal to that I'd like to point out that those cars had shorter suspension arms than the...
.........being deeply poisoned by this site for a long time..........& after getting a gold tub, A&L conversion not long ago........my next target is the graphite tub...........:)
lucky enough to get one in the bay at a reasonable price...

Nice!!, that's one of my target finds too, Did that chassis come from ebay in the last month?
I got this graphite tub around 3 to 4 months ago.........from valkyrie ........:)
I blew the dust off of one on my projects (actually, they don't really collect much dust, I open them up to review them and what parts I need to get the kit to 100%, or change things around)
I have about 15 different 'kits' of buggies on my to do...
Got a very nice fusion speed tub drilled for a stealth. Not totally sure on the direction of this yet, any suggestions? I'm going to fill the 2 little holes on each side of the chassis then seal it with lacquer.
So I started a while ago on this car and never finished it.
The chassis doesn't line up well with most bodies and it got sidelined for a while.
Anyways...
The chassis had been cut/carved where the front arms were touching the chassis on full...

I watch Andy's eBay listings but only see the painted bodies getting listed. I wasn't sure if there was a different retail source with a set price. Wishful thinking.
He had some clear Pro Arrow and Renegade bodies listed a while back.
This project started when I received a darn nice graphite chassis except for the fact that the front of the chassis had been cut on the ends of the nose. So much that only half of the outer holes for the a-arm mounts were there :evil: So i dug into...

Very nice, ballsy to run those arms though-
I do have a set of the dynotech arms, I may change them. The arms are actually not as nice as they appear in the pictures. Someone took a dremel to the shock area for clearance :evil:
