truck worked great again, changed from 2 7/8 to 3.6 belly clearance still did great. I'm just use to running a low belly and wanted to try it higher. |

Chassis looks great. Is there going to be a preorder or do we just make an order and wait for the ups guy to pull in the driveway.

| Re: **** T1E Sniper **** Nick will have to chime in on the completed rig weight. The chassis with aluminum cross braces and aluminum hardware weighs 51 grams. My rig as it sits in the picture above is tipping the scales at a whopping 1lb. 5.5oz. thats with all stock geartrain, so it should easily wind up being sub 4 when completed RTR.

Great to see you guys coming up with a new chassis, some nice ideas on it. What's the weight of the Chassis like pictured? Saw no info on website. Any build threads yet? |

Chassis as it sits above is 51 or 52 grams IIRC. I weighed it when I first put it together but that was awhile ago and my memory sucks. I'll pull it apart and weigh it tonight to confirm. Build thread coming soon | |

If I'm not mistaken and I may be. Nicks rig weighed in at 4lbs 2oz RTR and he still has all the SS screws etc. so there is a good bit of places to loose weight if needed but at that weight it does great and if he needs to jump something it is light enough that he can make it jump forward like a damn frog. I have some video from the comp but half of it the camera was pointing towards the ground (I'm not the best camera man out there that's for sure) I will see If I can edit some of it out. It is truly different than any other setup that I have saw and just plane sexy IMO!

| Re: **** T1E Sniper **** Haha...yeah yeah, i know. It's just mocked up to get the link lengths and stuff from when I needed to order the Ti links. The last of the parts from VP should be at my doorstep today when I get home, then I wait for my rear shafts from Felsenfest, then it's getting completely broken down and put back together piece by piece. Thats when I'll post my official build thread |

| Re: **** T1E Sniper ****
mine is at 4.3oz ready to run. still have all SS hardware in the chassis and cf wheels, i know i could get it in the mid to high 3lb but until i get use to driving it this light i'm not going any lighter. i will get more if up on the sight this week. BTW this will jump like a frog for sure and plants down the front sweet. does some cool wheelies too.... |

Love the new Sniper chassis I'm gonna have to get one of these bad boys and some wheels for myself. Will you be selling stainless links for them as well?

Titanium links. Stainless would weigh a ton and the Ti is much stronger. Sent from my Razr from the deepest part of your brain using tapatalk |
