Having a Mission with an S1? chassis, I was wondering how much lighter the Carbon Fibre chassis was and if there is any difference in it's rigidity over the standard item.
Does anyone have any specific figures? Thanks Skiddins |

You want rigidity figures
![]() No really, I don't have any figures to tell... but I suppose the difference would be in the neighborhood of 20-40 grams. I recall weighting them some years ago and Mission CF was ~60 grams lighter than it's S1 counterpart. I hope my memory serves me correctly... CF is definitely lighter and more rigid than S1. It's also more brittle. |

yeah it will b fine for that, he just means if u giv it a big wack it is more lightly to crack instead of s1 but dnt worry bout that, go for the carbon i found a big diference in the driving terms over the s1, bob

What I really mean is the curbs at WLRC on the track, not roadside curbs. Skiddins |
