Default Ax10 deadbolt chassis recommendations?

Im a noob... I picked up my dead bolt this past monday lol and im already about 800 deep... I really dont care for the whole scale thing and i want to focus more on performance. So I am wanting a new chassis that will help lower COG and has better options for shock and link mounting...I am wanting something that will be a direct replacement to avoid custom links being that i already purchased the axial stage 1 alum link set.... any recommendations here guys?

hot racing makes one, Proline made one and there is one for sale in the classified section. I don't know how either of these perform Another option is a Wraith chassis. Or, you could work on the shocks and get it to sit lower...I did and it works great.

You could always get an older AX10 chassis and lexan body of your liking

Norton has a pretty cool aluminum chassis for his crest (same chassis) I think its a top cad or something like that. Pm him and ask.

Not bad looking. Pretty much any chassis is gonna work with some fab work. Jus have to use a lil imagination.

This won't help to lower your COG. I haven't seen a chassis specific to the AR60 axles that is a great performer, but you can make most work. Anything designed for the original AX10 will work with a little ingenuity. I went with the UGC Fastback II like a lot of guys have and it is working quite well. You will have to make up your own links though.
