It's not that, Jon. You are not a bad guy. It's just that you come off sometimes as if you wanna argue about it. Everyone I talk to and know on DDR is all about safety, but you start getting way too technical and talk like every sandcar should be built to NHRA standards. Most big name sandcar builders have been building sandcars for many many years with a great deal of experience and know how to build a safe chassis. Yes, there will be those shady builders out there and we all must watch out for them. As for Funco, they know their chit and build safe cars. Anyone can post a picture of a particular frame or chassis and nit-pick the hell out of it. There are ALWAYS things you are gonna be able to do to strengthen a frame.
My "zero chassis flex" comment referred to the frame not flexing WHILE DRIVING. Do you want your frame flex to be added into your travel? "Hey I have 21" in suspension travel and 3" in travel in my frame for a total amount of 24" of travel!!! " :dance: Not so much.
Yes your frame SHOULD give to a certain point in the event of an accident, but while driving!!!???
