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.

But the other colors he has right now, he refers to as imitation carbon fiber-but is exactly what you said- Aluminum Coated Fiberglass. What also amazes me is that John has the weight down to the same as the stock lexan bodies. That's awesome. Please post some pictures up of your Hyper 9E carbon fiber chassis once you get it. Have a great day :)

I have reading about carbon and kevlar composites for a while, until i found that US law forbid to ship those materials to my country (in raw form).


I haven´t got my Hyper 9e yet and according to what you set i won't have a carbon chassis

Hi molak,
I can direct you to Robert of Matrix Concepts Inc, who is right now as we speak completing the finishing touches on the Complete Carbon Fiber Chassis and Carbon Fiber Kit for the Hyper 9E and Hyper 10sc as well. RCtech has a thread under Hobao Hyper 9E, last page and that should get you started. Robert of Matrix Concepts and John of MoosRacing are both Master Craftsmen in working with carbon fiber design for the purpose of performance and racing. You can also Google Search "Matrix Concepts Inc", and once at the home page, look to the upper right hand corner under Mission Statement, click on mission statement and you'll find Roberts direct emal address and direct phone number. Be sure to ask Robert to add you to the waiting list for the Complete Matrix Concepts Inc- Carbon Fiber Kit, which includes the Carbon Fiber Chassis, Carbon fiber shock towers, radio tray, center diff top plate, rear chassis brace, side guards, and more. The chassis alone should be priced at just under 100.oo dollars but specific pricing will not be set until the chassis and parts are released which will be around the time of the Nationals, which is quite soon. Let me know how this works out for you, I'm sure you'll be quite happy with Roberts work.

It sounds like you are in a country other than the USA. John of MoosRacing is not in the USA, John of MoosRacing is in Denmark.

I would like to add that this is in NO WAY the chassis fault, there was 1 jump that would throw cars 20-30ft in the air with a crappy lander, and if you F***** up on the jump there was no way to prevent a nosedive from 20ft up...


FYI, the chassis didn't completely rip apart until the 10min race was over(I took 5th in the A) and I grabbed the buggy by the front tower to put in my car...

there in no possibility to have an hyper 93 chassis for me ?

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.
