Will you be producing this chassis? If so, what will the price be, and when will it be available? I LOVE the idea of no shocks. I have been messing wth my tube setup for a while now, and finally got it dialed in, but this is just TOO cool not to have.

I thought the 1.9 version was the sweetest thing I'd ever seen, but this is actually cooler I think. How long till you get some out for sale? I'd take a proto right now if possible. And how long till the dig servo mounts are ready? You just keep coming out awsome stuff!

WOW!! I WANT ONE NOW!!!!!!!!!! if you'd be interested in selling that proto I'd pay more than the other guy for it!!! Seriously though, The only thing i'd see possibly being a problem is that after some time would the chassis wear out and lose some of its spring??

Seriously though, if you have another one of those lying around, Id seriously take one. I've got a complete DNA setup right now that has placed 1st and 2nd in the last 2 comps I've been to and I'd love to take a new chassis to the next comp and place again!

Here's your body on shot request Gabe . I'm still workin on the real body for it...but it's gonna be the sickness fo sho. The wheels pictured are the standard DNA 1" width...the new ones soon to be shown are slightly narrower .

Thanks guys, and feel free to send us an email if you'd be interested in owning one so we can gauge how many to run in our first production run. We will post updates about these guys going out to to be distibuted to hobby shops as we get closer to that time.

All our new digs will include this mount instead of the old mount. You will need servo standoffs to work with your servo of choice. For those who just want the mount, we have the first 100 mounts going out to distributor by Friday this week so they will be going out to hobby shops next week. Retail is set to be around 18 bucks for the new mount and it is machined from 6061 T6 .090 aluminum plate.

Well we finally got my new super narrow (.65" face to face plus rings )comp wheels done. We cut them with two different bevel thicknesses...my personal rig will be the light bevel, but let me know what ya'll think. I know they are not everyone's cup of tea...just like my whole build here, so keep the comments useful huh

The more I drive it the more I can't wait to run it against some of you great guys in a comp...so far it handles like a dream. Current all up weight with battery, minus body is 4 lbs. 6.6 oz. My personal comp rig pictured, is set with a track width of just under 9.5" .

I can't wait to see that thing in Omaha. Better bring the window cleaner cause it's gonna have lots of my grubby finger prints all over it.
