Here is the link to race bomb. After alot of research on various forums but no first hand experiance it is my opinion that the G-Maxx is a superior product. Additionaly note the stock status...Hmmm?

Racebomb

I never had a Bombproof chassis. So I can't comment on that. But I have a G1 and G2 Gorilla chassis, and they are awesome products. Nice prices, too.
You can get them here from Mike, and you can also get every individual part separately. Niiiiiice

Thanx guys Im looking for the lightest dont know what to get yet ?

To hit the same road like Papa;

I too heard and read a lot of good things on the G-maxx frame and i am just a sucker for CF, i don't like the brown/gray transparrant plastics.. It's a heavy frame.. I have seen quite a few broken racebombs.. The g-maxx is an ultimate lightweight race chassis and take serious abuse..

I can show you my BPP Torpedo chassis.

Its an old pic. Much more done to it since then.

This was the first design. They then created the Racebomb which is close to the G2 chassis.
If I was to go back and do it again, i would most likely go g-maxx.

Lightest frame available for the maxx is the gmaxx, the CF one..

I've held a race bomb of a friend and it was surpisingly light. The only thing that I don't like about the chassis is not to be able to use lock tite which will chemically react to the chassis and become very weak.

It is deffinatly a very nice chassis for regular basher's and will do fine at the track.

Serum · 09.04.2005, 05:24 AM

you never had the gmaxx CF in hands.. It is lighter than light.. You need to keep your hands above it instead of underneath it..

:L:

I've also held an carbon g-maxx. It is lighter for sure, I'm not saying the race bomb is as light as g-maxx but it is deffinatly not a heavyweight chassis and really does fine at the track.

I really don't think you'll notice anything in handeling with either the g-maxx or race bomb when your truck is set up correctly. But if you want light, like mentioned get a g-maxx.

They are both excellent chassis, i have both a CF gmaxx & a CF racebomb. The race bomb is the most stable in my opinion because it two inches longer then stock. The Gmaxx is a little more agjile because it's a little shorter than the race bomb. They both work very well for racing, remember a race bomb won MONSTER MADNESS THIS YEAR. On a tight smooth to medium rough surface, the gmaxx gets the edge in my opinion. On a really rough track my personal opinion is the race bomb gets the edge .

nitrostarter · 09.04.2005, 07:55 PM

Both are excellent chassis. Only thing is, the racebomb isnt in production from what I see and there was only like 5 CF racebombs made.

I would go with G-maxx simply because you can get the individual parts if need, like previously stated.

rchippie · 08:03 PM

Thats true but i'm freinds with emaxx jeremy one of the partner's:eek: LOL!!!.

I would get the GMAXX , i promise you wont be dissapointed. I'm very satisfided with mine.

There were only two full CF bombs made. There were only 5 CF bottom plates, & 2 CF top plates made. The other full CF truck was sold to a guy in france, & i have the other one.
