just wait until the body get here and its on.. the hardest part isnt making the chassis yourself, its finding a body.. took me a week to find a body.. i found a guy that made his own body hisself, and it actually looks pretty good, like the shape and over all appearance.. so he's gonna form another one up for me, just to help me out and shut me up on asking, lol

Its a type of carbon plastic stuff. It hardly has any flex in it, and performs very well. Its very light too, compared to aluminum or any other type of metal.

i went with alluminum for the little bit of extra weight, so i could keep it on the ground, so far it dont pop up.. im not a wheelie guy, but we'll see how well it stays on the ground with the brushless setup..
