Nice job Carl good.gif

Its always good to see some different shells going around the tracks ..... and there aren't many options for the SC chassis at the mo ...

Not sure about the name tho .... with all those vents in the body I thought the "Venter" would have been good biggrin.gif

Thanks Si. smile.gif I love the idea of the 'Vent'er, wish I thought of it biggrin.gif

Keith suggested we stick to the predatory shark names so I had a look around on Wikipedia for shark species and found the Goblin shark to be a bit different and it kinda stuck. It sure is an interesting process to be part of.

This is what a Goblin shark looks like. Nothing like the shell but still:

Eeek, scary looking shark ! good you didn't base the shell on it smile.gif

Yeah body shell making certainly is a interesting process, can be a bit frustrating when things don't turn out like you thought, but also very satisfying when they do and peeps say nice things biggrin.gif

Yes should do. There is a bit of room in the front and back to trim to make it shorter or to run it slightly longer if you need to.

I understand, sounds good.

I'm going to run a chassie that is as most 189mm and as shortest 180 mm, just By flipping the arms and moving the spacers. The perfect chassie wink.gif
