i got the shock towers for this chassis front and back i got from adam lancia .i was gonna mount them on a JG chassis of mine but it already has lazer towers on it and the srs color differs from the JG color.hence i prob wont use them. if your interested 25$ to your door.

2nd place is just the 1st loser

I'm a big mid fan so keen to see from that perspective but also I have...

I'm hoping someone on here can help with the id of the chassis on this mid that i've found. The cars not in bad condition at all and the chassis is almost unmarked, i just don't recognise it!. Here's a few photo's thanks:

Very nice! Should build up to be pretty much an ultimate version of the good ole optima mid. They dont get any better than that!

Hi Guys,

Just received these and was wondering if anyone knew which wheelbase they were ?

Also wondering if the PK set was mid and which length.

Any help appreciated.

Cheers

Alan

Thanks for the info guys, some really nice cars there.

The PK chassis is aluminium and is red (these pics look orange), There seems to be the front and rear damper stays with it but no top deck. the gearbox mount points look the same as the JG...

I found this chassis lurking in my pile of optima parts. I can't seem to find good source of what optima mid model it came with or if it was some kind of after market chassis.

First I thought it belonged to the Optima Mid Custom Special but when...

Tanks for your input.

I restored my OMCS with the graphite version as it was more rare. I would also replace the alloy chassis on my OMC if I could.

For runners I prefer to craft my own chassis so that I'm not dependent on original- or expensive...

Is the tray that extends under the rear gearbox in this picture a custom made part, or was something like this offered? I like it.

Anybody else see the irony that, if weight was such a concern, you could simply remove the plate? :mrgreen:

Great forum. I ran my RC10 on road in gearbox class back in the day. The RC10 is the single most versatile RC design ever. I extended this chassis by one inch in order to mount this Protoform VW body. At first I considered getting a second tub,...

Very nice! But I got your chassis extension right here... :lol: :lol: :lol:

JK! But that is a awesome buggy!
Pitty there's not enough space on the chassis to mount the ESC on the bottom :mrgreen:

I increased the length of my chassis by a full 10mm, and you can too with this one weird secret!

Well, I race dirt oval, so I slow corners aren't really something I encounter a lot. I drove it on a large off road track (1:8 scale) and I didn't see any problems with a lack of steering at all either. Maybe on a tighter track some problems may...
