CSO Xray NT1 Carbon chassis plate

Currently in development by CSO in Hong Kong, is this carbon fibre chassis plate for the Xray NT1 1/10th scale chassis. They are currently fine tuning the chassis thickness but so far it has performed very well in testing and thanks to its 60 grams of weight savings, seems to give the car better fuel economy too. As with all non metal chassis plates in gas cars, heat transfer is a concern, but testing in 20 degree (C) heat proved to be no problem for the engine and chassis. They will give the chassis its biggest test to date at the KM Cup that takes place at the end of this month in Bangkok, where the competition will be strong and the heat and humidity really high. We will keep you posted on further developments.

we did make few extra pieces but these are the testing samples! It is a interesting exercise and result was very good so far.
I know there were few people made them in the pass but not sure why not continue.
