Flex control would be something else that could be tuned with CF weaves, too.

But, boy, that carbon tub is damn sexy.
Yes i've already had an aluminium chassis tweak. That's why I would like to try a carbon chassis. The aluminium bowed in the middle and I wouldn't have noticed it only that my centre drive shafts kept falling out and I tracked it down to the chassis.
