IMO I would just go with the traxxas extended chassis. Its only like 40 bucks and allows you to just drop there center diff in and go. Your not gonna lose or win a race because you have the carbon fiber chassis or stock one. Whats going to win you the race is being consistant on the track and practicing as much as possible out there. Even if your doing great in practice and making super fast runs and think you cant get any better just do a few more tanks.
It never mattered if my revo weighed upper 10 pounds or around 7 and a half pounds. Practicing a lot made me consistant and always landed somewere in the upper A-main. So I wouldnt waste your money on the carbon fiber chassis. My main reason is I dont think it could hold up to all the abuse a revo goes through. I would hate to see you have one bad hit and chip it and then lose a race a few laps later because your chassis wasnt strong enough.
