Wasn't thinking of the polycarbonates for the body, but the stuff used for plastic suspension arms, suspension parts, even formed plastic chassis plates. RC offroad cars take a brutal beating every race yet keep on ticking. It isn't impossible to break the plastic but it usually takes a very severe impact to do it. Mike

I don't know what kind it is, but the stuff is incredibly strong with a bit of flexibility and wear resistant. It might be perfect for track links or other high abrasion high stress parts.i think i have a sample of that and they call it high-impact plastic. i know it would be good for the r/c car bodies, but not too sure if i'd want it for tracks and wheels as it might give a little when you don't want it to Chris-- You are currently subscribed to the "R/C Tank Combat" group.
