|  Chassis weight?
Hello. Could you tell me how much weight can I save if I bought a carbon chassis.... More or less? I'm not sure if It is a good inversion in order to save weight. Thank you!! |

How much weight you can save is dependent on what ur taking off and which chassis you get.. These days, with the options in trannys and motors, is where you save the weight. I run a CCC Boxer chassis with a CCC Bulldog tranny and a HH 400 puller.. The motor alone is 2oz lighter.. The tranny is lighter and the chassis is lighter.. I'm rtr at sub 3lbs 8oz without any other real effort put into it! |
