Can anyone tell what kind of chassis this is and if it is any good?
Thanks,

Looks like a Racer Products chassis from the mid-late '80s.
Parma made them cease production I believe because it infringes on the Parma Flexi patent. They were easily bent in a race.

Thank you for your reply. Sounds like one to stay away from. It looks light, it might be too light.

Hi
I didn't get the patent part of this one, but I observed that this was another chassis that beat me up hip and thigh. Despite the fragility, I could not get it to work either versus any of the competition just like the second gen slotworks.
