This is the second part of a three part series about the Auto World ThunderJet Ultra-G chassis. In the first part we discussed the out of the box chassis to include visual inspection and measurements taken on individual parts. We then ran the car on the track to establish a baseline with respect to time. You can read part 1 here. In this article we will cherry pick the parts from the 5 cars that were purchased and see what kind of increases we can obtain with this chassis.
Like most of you I was introduced to the Aurora T-Jet as a kid. Then as I got older my interests and attention were diverted to other things. After thirty or forty years I have made full circle and now have picked up this hobby again. And like you, I have found that now we have in addition to the T-Jet there is also the T-Dash and Auto World's ThunderJet. I had been resisting taking the plunge into Auto World's product for various reasons but as of late have read that The T-Dash chassis is sort of up in the air as to if it will be around much longer. So I thought I would see what Auto World's ThunderJet Ultra-G was about and if it is a chassis I can work with.
