I recently bought a Factory Team B4 (kit no 9035).

Will the chassis which came with it be the carbon one ?

Also, what's the part number for the plastic chassis ?

Does the chassis look black in colour, or kind of grey?

Black = plastic, grey = carbon

Cheers c0sie :thumbsup:

It's grey - therefore carbon.

Does the plastic chassis make the car less nervous to drive ?

If your kit was in a black box with Neil Cragg's car on it - then the chassis is plastic.

It does look pretty grey also, especially compared to the softer plastic of the rear T-piece - but you'll notice that the carbon towers are an even lighter colour.

I had the same question myself when I got my car - I wasn't sure if the chassis was plastic or not - had it confirmed straight from AE.

It's still a pretty stiff chassis though - way stiffer than the chassis on my old B-MAX4.

TBH I think Cragg and Pidge etc could notice the difference between the chassis' but I doubt I ever could really.
