    Voters-Remorse!

    …yes I voted for the black medium chassis, but I have two and they both are warped (and I don’t want to get a taco like Dave got when he baked his Mosler chassis b/c it was warped).

    Can we re-consider allowing the Green (ultra hard) and White (hard) chassis?  Regarding the argument of keeping the cost down ……  come on …. it’s an additional $10usd on top of what is already a $90 stock (and $120 if you include new motor, guide and spare tires) car.

    If I have a $120 car I don’t want it’s performance compromised because I can’t add an $10 chassis.

    At 4-years old in Pensacola I repaired my steering linkage on my Ford Pedal-car. Dad later converted this car to a Blue Angel with ailerons and elevators with a working "stick/yoke"; the rudder was controlled by the steering wheel. I like all motorsports - I grew up going to a NASCAR Feeder track with Sportsman and Modified classes, and was lucky to attend drag races in 1970 at Orange County Raceway. My first solder-iron was a Christmas gift at 9yo; I modified T-Jets to be AFX spec before AFX Cars were in local stores. I rebuilt a few tractor & car (SIMCA) engines plus transmissions by 15yo (I still have my ring-compressor and valve spring tool) I am a former mountain and road bike geek & perennial sound engineer.
