Hi guys
Well the postman was nice to me yesterday. He gave me one of Steve's new Ranch Design Slimline chassis.
I am impressed in a good way. A great job is done on this chassis. Attention to detail is awesome!
Rear bushings are already installed, No fiddling on my part, the motor bracket fits well and is a great idea IMHO. All the holes that need to be threaded for the motor bracket mounting are done as well as the bolt holes for adjusting the wheelbase. Sweet!
For crying out loud the holes for the front axle are even chamfered so clumsy hands like mine can slip in the axle!
When mounting the motor there is a cutout in the bottom of the pan that the motor fits down into, making the cg very low. And a slot that a magnet can be glue in for those that need it.
This chassis is Light, light, light!!!
The standard SCX motor fits and Kihm's SCE-FB2 motor from Slotcar Express fits, for those who want a little more speed.
I have to get out some Ranch Design gears and wheels I got extra of and try it out.
Thanks Steve. :handgestures-thumbup:
Cheers Ted
