These are three great sites for rules and pictures of different monster truck racing events.

Here's a picture of our Clod race chassis, the Sniper:

aww sweet I was lookin at getting the tremor in the for sale section what are your thoughts about that chassis?

Well cpe mt gave me some web sites and it seems like they do it a lot

Clod racing pretty popular on the East Coast/Northeast area. They don't race on outdoor off-road type tracks though so a lot of people may not know about racing these.

The Thunder Tech Tremor is a great looking chassis, but is kind of top-heavy for true racing. I know there aren't a whole lot of them around, so if that style chassis is what you're looking it may be a good deal. Our chassis is less complex in design (no semi-real looking cage) but offers more in adjustability and can handle twin battery packs if necessary. It's also pretty easy to adjust from a race chassis to a everyday basher chassis without worrying about damaging anything on the chassis.

what sould i do with the chassis should i lower it or leave it what are some help full tips?
Thanks

For any chassis, you would like to have it as low as possible for racing. Ours as pictured sits 1-1/8" off the ground and the battery and electronics sit just above the battery. I don't know if you can get the Tremor to sit that low since I don't have one. To bash around, you would want to just raise the chassis up a bit so you have a little more ground clearance and more suspension travel to handle bigger jumps.

Our truck currently runs a Novak Super Duty ESC, 8 cell 3300 battery pack, and two Team Orion Method R 11T motors with 2WS. Needless to say it's plenty fast with that combination!

Dirt or carpet racing? On carpet, either pullers or bajas. I personally like the pullers a lil better, but you gotta find the older ones with the harder rubber compound because the news collapse the side wall when going into turns hard.

If its dirt, I have some old amark spike tires I love, or cut stock clod tires work well
