New E-Maxx chassis

[maxxdude1234]

Don't know if anyone knows, or knew. But fastlane machine have just released a new extended chassis as well as the tranny case.
Check out http://www.fastlanemachine.com/Publi...9/Default.aspx
its only $90 and extends the maxx 35mm....

Another guy has a thread to on it. Just didn't have site. That is sweet looking. I wonder if mike is going to carry these.

I'm a little concerned as to how the batteries mount. There are no battery cups/bars/straps in that photo. Can't wait to see some high res pics of that chassis, it certainly looks very promising for the price.

I like the looks. I wonder what the weight is. Make me want to get one. Build me a all aluminum emaxx with fastlane parts.

It says in the description of the chassis that it includes battery "mounts". This chassis will give a lot of competition to the G-Maxx chassis!

I like the higher clearence for bashing around. The body will cover the batteries up to. I think it is pretty.

I hope it can support 7-8 cells flat for some seriously high cell counts. Unless is turns out to be a complete flop, I will probably buy one. Purely because of the extra 35mm, and the price, plus i reckon at 6mm thick its gotta be pretty sturdy.

The way the brace is under it makes it strong. Has the four mounting points per brace. I would be happy with 7 cell flat. It would look real nice with that new tranny on it.

I want to know if you can run 7cells flat on this chassis. Is there plans on making a regular length chassis to. I like the longer trucks but I also like the short ones in some ways to. I like to know more info on this. What about mounting the batteries?

FYI for this thread:

Mike normally races on Friday nights, so don't expect a reply from him regarding this product until either very late tonight or sometime tomorrow morning.

I just working on my rides checking out some new stuff on the forum. Thanks batfish. I won't thinking about race night.I not in a hurry for answers any way. Have enough to keep me busy.

I, however, am now re-thinking selling my E-Maxx :)
With this more economical chassis, I may just be able to afford the CVDs it also would need, heh.

Like I need another RC.

[coolhandcountry]

It is a good price. It looks strong to. I like that the braces are attached in the 4 points.

Maxxdude, If you look at the picture very close, there is a relief cut in the underside of the chassis.

Looks nice but heavy in comparison to the Gorilla.

Like the design though.
