Gourgeous chassis.

Price???????????
Anyone know?
Peaked my Interest. My Lim is wanting one. Wallet permitting....
The Matte version is probably less $$. I imagine.

Nvm there it is

Shut up and take my money.

It's $239.00, there was a link on the you tube site for the video.

Nah. Rather have scorched! The original. No knock offs. Just like how he ripped off ramjam braces.


Why do you think James McCoy and Raz don’t talk much anymore? Because Raz is there for profits and fame and other things that I can’t expose I don’t dislike him. The original ideas like the springs are greatish. But I trust scorched and Saga and EMP over this.

List goes on… with the design as well

 

[BashingBrian]

Well, that's very nice
If it were cheaper on the shipping/duty/taxes side I'd be all over a matt one..!!

I like Scorched as much as anyone else but the chassis is hardly a rip off. Scorched uses plates. That one is formed. If Raz ripped anyone off, I'd say he ripped off the Hot Dog Customs guy(if he was first forming his CF chassis')

driving so excuse my grammar and spelling. But my point was he’s out there copying everything else. And no matter. Scorched is my go too

Yeah I agree.ill wait and see in the future if it drops in price .but it's a beautiful chassis I must say..I'd like to see someone get it and try it out and give us a review.im sure it's as good as Raz says it is.he knows his stuff

Fair enough. I love their stuff too and only wish getting my hands on their stuff was easier like stocked locally. I glad David did that and with their own upgrades to boot! It's not like he needed it but I'm sure every ounce of publicity helps not only his brand, but the hobby too.

Probably worth every penny. Far from any knock off. Appears to be the closest chassis in shape to the OE in Carbon fiber. The Stock areo is fully maintained. No Bulkhead shimming needed up front. Basically one piece. Not easy to lay up CF this way. In 4mm. Precisely and Time consuming. Being Lim V1/V2 compatible is the Icing right there. Preconfigured both ways.
My 2 cents.

 

[jipper]

Raz is the man for pushing this niche part of the hobby. Any haters out there are just jealous. I will be ordering one.

 

[King blitz]

Thanks Raz for a beautiful peice of art

Strange he didn’t go full length with it. Kind of surprising.

Burnt dog just copied the original chassis. And Raz won't take 3 months to mfg and still f it up. Yes I still dislike Matt.
Missed the sale if not I would own Pp chassis.

I know there were issues with his production. He had a great idea for a product, one many people shelled out large for. But as far as I know, no-one else offered a CF chassis formed the way his were. Scorched uses a separate aluminum front end. CURC uses wedges. Both examples choose the easy, cheaper, and logistically more viable route buying pre-made carbon fiber plate sheets.
Two well established aftermarket part suppliers did pre-made CF plate chassis cut out in a CNC and precision drilled holes with CNC's. Smart move and that's how they keep up with orders. The other did all his by hand, mostly himself and what I believe really happened was he found himself overwhelmed with orders and never had a long term plan in place for such an event. He likely thought he would make maybe 20-30 a year and was overwhelmed with orders for those numbers weekly. I respect that he tried. And rest assured that the chassis' made by PP, Scorched, and CURC are basically copies too.
This isn't meant to defend HDC. Folks had a right to be pissed. But I also feel people don't appreciate what he faced with people screaming from every corner for refunds or chassis, all the while trying to keep the wheels turning. Imagine for a second here a possible world without Scorched or M2C parts because if their debuts were similar they might not exist today.

Agreed. And I think his idea of making this in a totally modular fashion to fit basically every LWB chassis without having to drill for your own personal layout is very, very smart. And you’re right, from a production standpoint it’s not even from the same planet as those engineered from a flat sheet of carbon. He also managed to do all of this for what I would consider a pretty reasonable price.
My main concern would be its most singular and attractive selling point: it’s 100% carbon fiber. I’m sure it can’t be as strong in the frontal area where the bulkhead attaches in the event of an impact. I would still be inclined to favor the Scorched design that incorporates aluminum mounting plates for the bulkhead. It also offers skid protection.
That said, if used for it‘s intended purpose (dedicated, straight line speed running) then I guess it wouldn’t be that much of an issue, as a crash at those speeds could ruin any chassis anyway. But if used for the dual purpose of street bashing and speed running, I would not choose the PP option and would likely stick with Scorched. There’s no way the Scorched design isn’t stronger at both front and rear. Granted, it’s a little heavier, but that doesn’t really matter much for these cars. Some would say it’s actually a benefit.
I do remain puzzled in regard to his choice to not engineer this right off the rip as a full length chassis and garner the aero effects that would have been possible with no front chassis infills plugging up spaces that could have been eliminated in the first place. Also, where are the chassis buttons for the droop screws? That carbon will be chewed up and weakened in very short order I would think.
But in the greater scheme, it’s good for the hobby to have him producing another option. And even with the concerns I have, I’m pretty sure that he’s built his base to the point where he’ll sell as many as he can make. For his hardest-core fanboys I believe Raz could probably take a crap on a piece of toast, post a video on his channel, and sell out of stock on Amazon in about 20 minutes. If anybody said, “hey man, that’s just dookie on rye,” we’d be described as jealous haters.

I so glad I thought of droop plates. I actually wrote to Scorched about acquiring some of theirs to no avail. Thought of using wide head short chicago bolts. Settled and made my own with 7075 I had kicking around.
Another thing, I've come to appreciate that CF has come a long way from my youth. It's safe to say the days of watching friends buy quality CF framed bikes only to have any of the stays, tubes or even head snap or crack with the slightest provocation are long gone. That being said, it wouldn't surprise me if testing revealed the PP 4mm chassis to be as strong or stronger than Scorched's 5mm. And I say this mainly out of belief that ridges, curves etc add structural strength when done right .
