Default Ax10 tuber questions!

Me and my friend are looking to get some tuber chassis. But not sure of the the best ones out there. We think were probably gonna go with the dog star, but were not sure if we wana wait till feb. Any one have any good suggestions?
Thanks!

The DMG makes some pretty slick tubers.. Death Metal Garage

I have not got my hands on one yet but they are some of the best looking tubers I've seen.

The only readily available one is the Gopher really. The Gopher is mass produced using methods to decrease time to build and cost.

DMG and the FatDog have to take longer as they are hand made.

Clodstall and DoubleJ both do custom work, they would probably help you if you had a design you wanted. Price and timing could vary.

How is that Gopher chassis? Did you get the one with upper shock mounts that were drilled out too big?

I like the looks of the hustler chassis. I've been contemplating one for myself. comes with the lexan panels and very scale looking as well.

I like the looks of the Hustler myself, but they are spendy.

They are taped to 6/32 just a bit larger then a 3mm you can also drill out one of the plastic pivot balls that come with the ax-10 kit
