Bob Rule Chassis-001.JPG

I think I got this from Ebay, and may have shown it before? but I can't remember, so here it is :-(
 

Who is behind "Flea Frames" ? and did Bob Rule own the chassis before I got hold of it ??

Akitani Retro CanAm/GTC chassis prototype.
Features double floating rail design.
By changing the floating rail rods, the chassis flex and rigidity can be adjusted to match the track type and conditions.
For example, set double steel rods for banked high speed track and single brass rods for flat or low bite track. Combination is also possible.
Floating rail : 062 dia. Main rail : 039X4 + 047X1 per side.
It is a prototype and not for sale, but PM me if interested.

New stockcar recently built heading to the display case for a certain event this weekend.  This is a clone to the one I raced at Piranha in April.  8 rails of .047, .032 pans, .016 center weight, Swiss bracket, 129 grams (with body), and 9/26 gearing.
