Formula Chassis Shipping - Pirate4x4.Com : 4x4 and Off-Road Forum

Just to let you guys know that are complaining about the cost of shipping. With a long bed truck and decent size car trailer you could haul 5 Formula Chassis. At a 3000 mile round trip that's less than $200 per chassis in fuel.

Good info Mike and makes sense. If anyone is interested, I'll make the trip and could bring back 2-3 (if I go, I'm taking a running Ftoy with me to wheel)

My first shot at making the trip would be for Cougar Buttes, CA ProRock in September for the Ftoy finals. PM me if anyone is interested.

I may be able to bring back 1 chassis from a we rock comp. Its tough to do, as we stuff it onto scott's buggy, but thats how ours got back here.

I'm planning on getting a chassis this year and when I get it, I will rent a U-Haul truck and pick it up.

Just a bump for anyone in the EAST that needs a Chassis, I'll be going to Cougar Buttes in September ( 4sure) to compete and can bring back 2 for a small fee of 200 bucks per chassis.

PM me for more info...
