Here are the first pics of the new Innovative R/C Products 1 1/2" extended Mayhem XST chassis. It's hard anodized 6061 aluminum and comes with the cool center brace and shock towers. It uses an XTM Mammoth ST rear dogbone. A CVD upgrade will be available as will CF shock towers etc.
We are a working on getting website up and will be taking orders then. Production has already begun.

I like it
The shock towers are they any different than the thicker ones out now?
Will thes one work with the new chassis being longer?
What about different colors for anodize

The shock towers are lower than stock and allow for the use of the Mugen MSR body. The stock towers will also work but not as well from a performance standpoint. There has been extensive testing done on the suspension geometry that's incorporated into the new towers.
The hard anodizing only comes in the gray color.

Yeah, the center brace is "different" but very effective. IMO, different is good. From a cleaning standpoint it's easier way to stiffen a chassis than a top plate like the Hellfire uses. Another good thing is my air filter won't get chewed up anymore on the throttle linkage. And I think it looks cool!

My partner is a guy out of Ohio named Kevin Price. He's a CNC machinist and racer of many years. He's been working on this chassis quietly for over 8 months. He and his team of 8 racers in 4 states have tested 3 versions of the chassis and 10 versions of the shock towers. He and I are now working together as I have a CNC for the carbon fiber parts and he does the aluminum. He handles the aluminum and I handle the CF. We both design and are working on some very creative stuff for the Mayhem ST and Pro buggy as well as other vehicles.

Quality comes at a price. Buy 10,000 units and I'm sure we can work out a deal.

It's not just the chassis, it's a chassis, 2 lowered shock towers, a longer dog bone and a chassis brace. It's an extended chassis kit. Pricing is relative and there will be a sale soon.
