Default Tlr 22 4.0 carbon tub chassis

Here is my newest project.
No sideguard will be used.
Aprox 60gr lighter.
Softer than aluminium chassis.
Maybe the first kickup carbon chassis for this car..

Looks good. What benefit does it give over the standard chassis?

What does less stiffness do? I see people add weight to under lipos and servos etc so interested to know what this does from a racing perspective

Do you have this car??
Many pro guys tryes to make the original chassis/construction softer because it is too stiff.
Softer chassis create more bites on slippery tracks.

Really nice quality work, well done.
One thing I like with the heavier alloy chassis, especially with low wind brushless motors, is how planted the car feels.
I've had my 22 4.0 for about six months and I love it.

Get yourself a 4.0. Night and day difference. The new Losi is a much underrated 2wd. It’s as good as any 2wd out there.
