C4.1 lwb?
 
Should I be putting a lwb on instead of stock to run out doors?
it's my frist time outside only been raceing since newyear....

I would certainly give it a try, the longer wheelbase should be much more forgiving. The ones neal has had made look brilliant in the flesh :)

Yes makes the car much easier to drive and more forgiving
I'm running the rudebits lwb carbon one and after trying it Sunday it felt very good!
Using shorty sat at the back also!
Not sure on the staggers now maybe try some mini spikes!
Setup is on petite site if you need it
If your sticking with the alloy chassis Tony parrs chassis are great and getting some results!

Well it wasn't one of mine ;-)

How do you know that?

All these aftermarket alloy chassis's bend and distort from my experience even if you don't hit anything! Hate them!
Carbon all the way!

I used to run a Tony Parr +10mm on mine, never had any issues with warping at all (no carbon braces either) :)

And how much is the carbon one in comparison with the Tony Parr one?

Chassis
 
+1 for Tony Paar chassis's

Made the car much easier to push and faster

Not had any issues what so ever with bending and trust me when i say some quick top drivers are using them.

I got the lwb with the car it a only a few scratches on it i a belived they were prob from just being in the bottom of old owner box....

Anyway i spoke to someone in the know and they told me the guy that had the car before me had crashed it and badly was bent...

Anyway i bent it back true and ran it in doors on friday night on a (low grip) track and its still fine so i might just use it for that till i can get a carbon fiber one..

Cheers all
