LCG TVP's with X Roll Bar?
Any body make a Low Center Gravity or extended TVP's that will accept the X style plastic rollbar? I keep having to straighten my aluminum bar. Alsomight be nice to have the engine protecter I guess I could try not to crash so much, but then I wouldn't really be bashin'.

Extended definately wont work if they are rear extended. Most LCG TVPs that are standard length will accomidate the X roll cage. The Innovative RC ones dont for some reason. Innovative RC do sell an upgraded aluminum bar, thats thicker and suppost to be better and stronger. I have never used a steel handle, so I dont know.

I have a set of innovative-rc standard LCG Race TVP's with the X style roll cage.
These "standard" TVP's are 3mm longer both in the front and back...So infact they are slightly extended.
The extension is due to the gearbox being lowered 12mm, making the drive shafts sit more level.

Chronic says his LCG chassis will fit with the X Roll Cage. Innovative RC Say thiers dont, however I think you could stretch the roll cage 3mm without any problems. They also sell a steel roll bar, which is better than the stock steel one they say. The engine head is low though, so you would have to take a huge bashing to damage the head with the X Roll bar.
