could i have a carbon fibre chassis and use a nitro engine? or doesnt carbon fibre like the engines...

its for my big spectacular car i have planned once i have moneys...

Ive always wondered the same... maybe due to the heat the engines emit? or maybe it doesnt conduct heat all that well??

I was under the impression that carbon could change shape when heated up? Might be wrong but worth a look if your going to have a hot Nitro engine on it.

thanks Ry...

reconsidering the carbon chassis and i guess theres a reason aluminium is used... titanium? LOL

i think ill stick with some 3mm aluminium...

thanks
chris
