Custom carbon fiber chassis for Half 8

Those are nice, but expensive. I just want to find a place that sells carbon fiber. I dont want to pay $70 for something that is a bit lighter and half as strong. just my thoughts...

lighter and less strong then what? The stock plastic??

yea, i always thought carbon fiber was light, for racing. I have heard it is not the best for jumping, because it doesn't flex like plastic. It will just snap.

yeah, it wont bend like plastic...but it it super light...then agian, how big are the jumps that your taking your 1/18 off that you need something so strong?

well, I've cleared a kid standing up that is about 6 feet tall...

heres a pic of the jump: http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y271/redhatman/RC18TJump001.jpg

you jumped your 1/18 over a baseball net? LOL

haha, yup. put an old rug over the baseball pitchback. and WOT! that was the first time i ever pulled a backflip.

Carbon fiber parts are great for RACING.backyard bashing you better keep most stock parts as you will breakl parts anyway and the less they cost the better.
