did they really ignore it.... they ignored mine too, untill I ordered the sample pack... and it's pretty tough... I didn't think it was worth it... but it's cool... so I order the 1/8" thickness 12 x 18 Sheet ($108).... I hope The guy at Kershaw does a nice job on the chassis.... cuz that's an expensive sheet... and $370 for the chassis, center drive system with slipper, motor mount... I wish I could give that money to Mike instead. ;)

they listed it as 200 psi.. so to me, it seems pretty tough....

They don't have a nice mirrored finish like the dragonplate?... I wonder how strong there Carbon Fiber is... Have you tried them before Serum...?

I can't argue with that. Just the same I still try to keep mine clean (at a minimum) and well detailed when I can. My Supermaxx/E-maxx is the latter while the revo is the former.

No, depending on the software. acad is useless imo. not that it's complex, but is the least logical piece of software ever..
