Ok, I am new to oval racing and am looking at racing carpet this winter. I am going to buy a CustomWorks car, but I am not sure which chassis (Slider or Solid) is the one for carpet racing.

I am going to run BRL, 13.5, single cell, COT classes....

Thank you, Dan

I ran the solid with 1-cell 13.5 LiPo this summer on caps and it was SUPER !

I ran my solid last weekend in Cincy- put it into the show in 10.5. Kinda like the feel of the solid versus the sliders, too. Sliders I had seemed too tempremental...

I just started using a solid. I used a Hyperdrive pro2 and pro3 before that and this CustomWorks has proven to be the right choice. It handles quite a bit different than my HDs but it is way faster through the corner. So I would say "thumbs up" to the solid.

I prefer leading edge, but they are conversion kits. Means just the graphite and standoffs.

But, if i were to buy a CW right now, it would be a solid. I owned both a few years ago, and the solid felt more comfortable and easier to tune.
