| Carbon Fiber Progress
Well the 2013 Progress has arrived The chassis has improved upper link adjustments, each chassis has been designed by a RCP Team Driver. The Progress II ZoSo, weights the most, at 12 grams a plate. this chassis can be used as a bodiless chassis (cuz it over 8" long) The newest Progress chassis is the Chad Miller. Chad has been kicking butt with his original Progress for quite awhile now. So I took his adjustable arm locations and cut it out of carbon fiber, his is the lightest plate at 7 grams. I'm waiting on some spacers to be delivered, so I can package them up and get them on the website. here's a photo of the plates: Last edited by ZoSo; 12-07-2012 at 10:45 AM. |

I don't know what shocks he runs... but it does sit low because the original Progress had adjustable arms it created a lot of different set-ups I'll get specs and photos from each team driver. Thanks Hittman | |

The Progress II is very close to III & V (just longer to run bodiless) I had a couple requests to move the upper link positions directly above the lower link postions (Progress IV & VI) Last edited by ZoSo; 12-07-2012 at 11:33 PM. |
