OK here is a pic of one of the Beta-B (Weezey) prototype Jefferson.

Just a few things about the Jefferson.

The Jefferson is designed to run wideners. The one in the pic (beta-b) has inetrc wideners (total 1 1/2" wider) with narrowed HPI Split 5 standard offset rims and the not pictured beta-a (George) is running blackfoot axles in front (total 5/8" wider) with narrowed HPI SS Monster fronts? (the deep dish ones). G-made wideners will work with the chassis also.

Both the Jefferson A and B are running bullet packs (for stability) but you can run a standard pack over the front servo if needed. (yes I'm running 4 cells. 6 will fit fine.)

Great.. thanks. I have ordered the aluminum and will be cranking out a few as soon as it comes.

Brandon · 11-18-2005, 11:57 AM

Any more pics? Im interested in it because I like its wider stance, and I assume it has a laydown tranny design that fits within the side plates? Thanks

DirkDigler · 11-18-2005, 12:16 PM

are you still using the kitchen knives and sand paper to make these?
Also, are you using the home made sand paper, with the fly paper and aluminum shavings?
I'll take one if you are still using this orginal method.

Yes i am. BUT I did get that new Guinsu I have had my eye on for quite some time now... cuts like a hot knife through buddah. Oh and I swithced from aluminum shavings to used kitty litter works awsome. You get the grit from the litter and lubrication from the cat turds... it's like wet sanding... almost.

Hmmmm......
It sounds good but I'll wait until the first batch comes out to hear what others say about this new method. I'm a traditionalist.

I think your email filters me out.

I have sent emails to you and no avail? I wanted a chassis.

All my emails seem to have gone to crap. And... last night the server went to crap so mayb that sit this time. You can try them all: matt@utrcrc.com or matt@ds411.com or matt.davis@zeroz.biz or even mattd@dentalselect.com (this one I can only get Mon- Fri though)

FrankyRizzo · 11-18-2005, 04:33 PM

Sent an Email to all of them. Maybe one will stick.

As far as when it will be available... PM or email me if your interested matt@utrcrc.com Until I can get with my local machine shop I can hand build chassis like I do with the vPrime.

BTW... That's $75 shipped in the lower 48.

Very nice, well built and solid chassis. Detailed instructions.
