Short Plastic Chassis

[dpackster1980]

I've seen team drivers using them, the cab forward shell is available so when are TD releasing the chassis?

hi there

the cab forward shell is for the +8mm plastic chassis.
there is no standard length plastic chassis.

just the dimec and the normal plastic chassis.
so all drivers drive the +8mm plastc chassis.

Few of the team drivers have tried a standard lenth plastic chassis . I know nathan did for couple rounds at worksop. But he used the +8 dimec20 at the last round and said it was better

the standard length cab forward shell is on the TD site but not in stock so they quite possibly r makin the short chassis

I was at Worksop and I can safely say that there definitely is.

lets hope the standard length plastic chassis is a lot stronger than the +8

I'm assuming it's the same mould with a piece taken out in the sidepod (there should be two lines over the width of the car where the wide part starts at the front of the sidepods) - it's a lot cheaper to build such a mould for variable wheelbases, so unless they are updating the mould I don't think it will be any different. Plus, I'd think any plastic chassis from Durango currently kind of have these durability issues?

There's not a lot wrong with the std length alloy chassis if you ask me .. nice bit of weight low down and if you want more flex just loosen a few of the chassis screws off ... works a treat
