Are you SURE your chassis is carbon? If it is one of the "new" style ones(black box, no plastic wrap around the box) it should be a plastic chassis. If you read the back of the black box, it describes it as being "composite" which is the stock, plastic chassis. The graphite and plastic look VERY similar, but I think the graphite is slightly darker in shade.

I think the plastic chassis is tons better on the track I race on. Just alot easier to drive, I don't want the carbon chassis. With these cars its a balance, when people say the carbon is stiffer that doesn't mean the plastic is floppy! It just means the plastic has sligthly more give in--can absorb a bit of shock.
