I'll try to get better pics of the rc8 chassis today...

John said he would be happy to take back the chassis with mistakes. John said that if he made a mistake in the chassis, he will make you a new one, no problem. He said to send him an email first, and then he will have you send the chassis back for a replacement.

I'm very sad to say, That John is closing his Carbon Fiber/Kevlar/Aluminum Chassis bussiness. John was away on vacation for three days, and when he came back, had over 150 emails, almost all for new chassis orders, all of which John had to turn down. Here's what's been going on.

John has a primary Job and works 8 hours a day at his day job, and then comes home and works on his hobby, which is making carbon fiber chassis and performance race parts for RC's. As of late, Business has become overwhelming with orders comming in from all over the world. John is completely exhousted and is closing the business in order that he can spend more time with his family.

I unbolted some stuff to mount on to my aluminum chassis last night and under the stuff I unbolted it looks like the resin wasn't quite dry because the stuff I bolted down dented the chassis. As an example, I had mounted my radio tray and there were two round indents where the posts for the radio try tightened down. I think I am just going to ultimately stick with aluminum and try to work something out with BEC to make a thinner chassis to my specs, they've already told me they could help me out and then I know it's CNC, etc.

AMorgan, John said to write him again and continue to write him until you make contact, let him know you were on the rc monster thread and had trouble with your chassis. let him know exactly what the problems are. be specific and to the point. John said he will make you a new chassis, no problem. Keep in mind, this will be the last chassis because John is closing the carbon fiber chassis business. He's been overwhelmed and that takes all the fun out of this hobby of his. John does his best with every chassis he makes. We all makes mistakes and we can't satisy 100% of the people 100% of the time. That said, I told John about your chassis and the other chassis on this thread pictured above, and he said if you want a new chassis made, email John until you get his response, I would send a new email every three days, this will make you stand out from the hundreds of orders John is getting every week for Chassis and Parts, that he is now turning down/away.

PS.
Anyone that owns a MoosRacing Carbon fiber chassis and or parts, Please continue to post pictures of your Chassis and or Parts on this thread. We can still keep this thread going, Johns Chassis are owned and raced all over the world. This thread can be about your race experiences, why you like carbon fiber, and anything relating to your experience with your RC and Performance parts made of carbon fiber :) Have a great day.

John is still working with(Making Carbon Fiber chassis and parts) for his team drivers- and testers.

John has been receiving about 150 new orders for carbon fiber parts and chassis every three days, which is about 50 new orders every day. John said he would no longer accept new orders from new customers because he wants to spend more time with his family. John has a regular job in addition to the carbon fiber chassis and parts business. John has been working almost 20 hour shifts trying to keep up with demand but has decide he will only work with his Testers, his Team which sounds like that includes you :-) and a very few established customers that John has been working with for a very long time. I do not have any specifics beyond the information I've said here. I'm sad to see that John will no longer accept new customers- but at the same time- I'm also very happy that John values his time with family more than anything. If anyone has any questions for John, please send John an email directly. I believe I've post Johns direct email address in previous posts. And if you are on Johns team, nothing is changing for you, your Carbon Fiber Chassis and Performance Parts will be made and shipped to you per your previous arrangements with John of MoosRacing.

John- The Owner Of MoosRacing is closing his Carbon Fiber business to the public(unless you are on his Team), December 1st of 2010, in order that he may spend more time with his family. I'm told by one of Johns Team Members that John will still take new orders for carbon fiber chassis- including the Hyper 9E- up until the 1st of this December(2010). Please write John via email to confirm this. I do not know if John is already fully booked solid or if John still has openings for new orders before he closes his carbon fiber bussiness. I do know that John was receiving aproximately 50 new orders each day from all over the world- for various carbon fiber parts and carbon fiber chassis as well. And being that Johns carbon fiber work has always been a hobby and John has a regular day job, the carbon fiber work and orders became overwhelming; and leaving very little or no time for John to spend with his family. This is the only reason John is closing his carbon fiber bussiness to new orders after December 1st of 2010.

Please send John an email asking to have your Hyper 9E chassis made for you. And you can ask if it's possible to still place your order- as well.

PS. You also have the choice of ordering your Hyper 9E Carbon Fiber Chassis From Matrix Concepts Inc. Google Search the aforementioned and click on Mission Statement at the top right hand corner of Roberts home page. Robert has been making carbon fiber chassis for the past five years with great success. Jeremy Kortz is also running the full Matrix Concepts Inc Carbon Fiber Chassis on his Hyper 9E- as well as the full carbon fiber Hyper 9E conversion kit. Robert recently develop a lexan underbody reminiscent of the Associated B44, which also protects the carbon fiber chassis. It's quite an awesome design. These chassis and kits are not shipping yet but Robert is taking orders for the Hyper 9E, as well as all other 1/8th scale models. Just send Robert an email and those emails with the largest number of orders will have the best chance of going into production sequentially- after the Hyper 9E and Hyper 10SC carbon fiber chassis and complete kits begin shipping. Robert of Matrix Concepts does not have a date set for delivery yet. Thank you for your interest- and for posting on this thread- and furthermore- for reading this post :)
Have a great Day/Evening.

You are very welcome. And keep in mind, if John does not return your email, it very likely means he's overwhelmed with work and may not be accepting additional orders before he officially closses his business on December 1st 2010.

John usually returns emails within four or five days. If beyond five days- I highly recommend you look into placing your full carbon fiber chassis and complete carbon fiber kit-order- with Matrix Concepts Inc- Robert Also Does Absolutely Outstanding Masterful Work- and has been for the past twenty years of working with carbon fiber for performance parts :)

wow sad news!

was hoping this guy could make me sum neat upgrades! Fredericia is other end of country, but in bigger scale, just around the corner.

he was truly unique. Wish he teamed up with rc fellows and continue that venture he had going! Never saw this sandwich-model he did before.

Glad I was lucky enough to get my chassis in before he got overrun with orders. I still have my Jammin chassis sitting in the box, but my winter project is going to be converting my Jammin X1 buggy to a Jammin X2 on-road GT car with the Moos Racing CF chassis. Should be very slick!
