Best value alloy chassis ? - 02.03.2007, 11:48 PM

Looking to replace my stock chassis with aluminum.

Any suggestions or links to good value for money chassis for mostly bashing and speed runs.

I am looking at this one at the moment by FLM.

I prefer the G-Maxx chassis, but for the money, the FLM is very nice. Mike also sells it by the way...

Decided to go for the FLM extended chassis from Mike.

Should see it in a week or so hopefully.:027:

When I started this thread I was just contemplating a new chassis, but after last weekend I need one,

no thanks to a mailbox jumping out in front of me...:024:

Actually - the chassis you were looking at at the other site was the stock size flm chassis - and the one you were comparing to ( at 90$ ) here was the extended chassis - the same one you saw there was 75.00 compared to 67.50 here - hope you get your stuff soon - take care....


Hows that "Hope and Change" working out for Ya???

The one he posted in the link is the 3 point light weight, I had one, and ran it twice before i sold it. I think the extended FLM is a great chassis for bashin, but the gorilla is the best of both IMO. And yes, bomb proof, i agree, go extended.

The chassis on 2 cool is a T-maxx chassis, regular length. We have it listed at $67.50. There is only one FLM emaxx chassis(at the moment :)) - extended for $90. :)
