Hey, I've seen a few of those carbon-fiber chassis. Does it save a lot of weight? How much does your car weigh?

I don't know how much it weighs but the C/F is lighter than the stock battery tray and it really improved the handling and the feel of the car.

Heres the body.

VERY NICE! Man, you've thrown a wad of cash at that thing! I especially dig the sway bars and the shocks. What size fantom is that, and how does it run?? It looks like I'm on the same path you are, except I'm doing the swingshafts all the way around before I do the carbon upper deck.

Good looking car though, definitely nice!

Thanks allot for the compliment .It's a Fantom fr15.I had to change the clutch because it was slipping but now it really huals a@@!!!!!The only other things I want to get for it are the center CVD's to beef up the rest of the drive train and maybe the wolfpack 2speed and a better tuned pipe.All I really need is a nice track so I can dial it all in and improve my driving skills a little bit more.

Yea, Nice! I have the HB Carbon Fiber Upper Deck Set. I like mine alot too. Your front rubbers look like they are plastic! Ha ha. I really like the shocks! Nice job. BTW, Did you notice any handling difference/upgrade when you added the sway bars?

I added the shocks and sway bars at the same time so I really didn't noticed the affect of the sway bars to much at first.They do help the car feel a little more planted when turning but I really need to get it on a track so I can tweak everything.

Thats the problem.The only track close is an indoor one so no nitro allowed.I guess I'll just have to keep swerving around cones until I find a nice outdoor track.

Not too far. Probably like 1 hour cause im in South East Michigan, a little south of Detroit. It depends where you are on the border.

Here is a pic of my TC3 - This body is not good for racing but it looks like a pimp mobile. That is what I was going for anyway.
