Quarantine means the builds are on the upswing - chassis are going fast

I've noticed a big uptick in builds coinciding with the milled chassis being much harder to find. Too late to start hoarding 6302s I guess :(

Guess this means we will see more of us reviving old scratched up chassis. I have a few Ill be trying to smooth and powdercoat soon and would love to see a thread of restored chassis before/afters

Watch out for companies like active powersports, they will list items that are discontinued and sit on your money. It can be a time consuming challenge to get your money back.

Thanks for the tip! I have come across them years ago. I think I'm pretty much stocked up now, at least as far as chassis goes

Dang. I ordered a worlds steering from them. They notified me it was back ordered. I told them to cancel and refund my money. So far they canceled but no PayPal refund.

I have delt with them before. I put a RC10 motor plate on order and they said it would be on backorder until April 1st (it was February). I waited until May and still nothing. They gave a refund but I would never order from them again.

I guess you could say it was an April fools joke :lol:

I realized I had just bought something from them that I had been looking for a long time - HPI 2160s (chrome super star rears for the RC10T). They cancelled the order within 24 hours and refunded, at least. I'm definitely making sure I don't take the bait anymore from them.
