A few pics and some specifications on my latest chassis which I have designated 'Fatboy #2' - this build is a direct descendant from 'Fatboy' which was the first frame I raced and have loaned out a few times - I still use 'Fatboy' as a yardstick to assess my later builds.
Firstly some specs: -
Main rails are 16#.
Brass attached to bracket and front axle are .062" by .250" wide.
The front panlets and guide tongue platform are .062" whilst the pans are .032".
The motor bracket is custom built from .032" brass plate.
Guide length from back axle is 5.032".
Wheel base is 4.032".
Weight with body is 124 Grams.
