| Best Chassis? CHANGED TO SCAVENGER HUNT!
which aftermarket chassis is the most capable? I just rebuilt my micro last night. I want it to be a lot more capable but cant decide between the DP torsion and the BWD mini wedge. the torsion looks like id break it. the BWD is expensive, and i would prolly want new shocks instead of the chitty stockers. And guidance? Last edited by BEELZEBOB; 10-21-2010 at 10:47 AM. |

The BWD is what I would go with. Saw one down at Crawlaploooza. It's a nice kit.

I ran the stock chassis on mine last winter with free/cheap mods and took first place in the series. Going for the gold again this winter |

| Sven is the man behind the Pinch chassis pm him and he'll get you fixed up, I don't think I've seen a review yet. The chassis flat out works Sven hit the nail exactly on the head with his design.

It needs something. i want it to be like functional??? i about stepped on it out of frustration yesterday. LOL the lil thing just flops around on the rocks like a big limp... well you know. i want it to like bite and pull and crawl like a mini comp rig. HMMMM I am running it w. a lil Hyperion 2s... what motor could i stick in there to make it like 2x as fast? i could just get a lil Xtrail chassis and redo my scal top and make a lil mini basher |

I'm partial to the BWD chassis on mine. I have driven stock, modded stock, Ripper and BWD and I like them favorite to least in the reverse order I listed them. I need to blow the dust off of mine and crawl it again You use the word "like" and awful lot there Bob, are you sure your not from So. Cal? I grew in in So. Cal and like everyone was all like all hopped up on like the like usage of like the word like. |

| I'm just not sure if you are man enough to drive a Micro Wedge my friend That said, in addition to the Wedge being planted and killing breakovers...it also offers the only super narrow micro skid, as opposed to using the factory wheelbase wide piece |
