    Seems to me that the viking chassis isnt making much of an impact. i race around kentucky, indiana, tenn. and ohio and i havnt seen one at any tracks yet. the killer chassis's are struggling. i think i heard they won a race out west somewhere but around here they seem to miss alot of shows. and they only have about 2 cars around here. Both of the owners there have other jobs. this is just a hobby for them it seems. Revelution cars are making a huge impact not just in this area but on this side of the U.S. theyve won lucas heat races and several big paying shows in kentucky, tenn. georiga,and alabama. seems like everywhere you go they have cars in the top 5. But what i like more is i have seen is the chassis builder helping alot of local racers that have other types of chassis's also. Around here everyone seems to like the treatment and the attitudes at the revelution shop. Hope this helps

                I know of one Killer chassis in our area and it seemed that he struggled for a while but once he got things lined out he has been bad fast. Won a couple of weeks ago by a straight away over some good cars in the slick. Just driver preference I think.

                  Not saying anything bad about any of the other guys . I have a Viking Chassis , the car handles great . Drives really well in slicked up tracks , and Josh over there at Viking is sharp on the tech help. You can always talk straight to him. I race in TN GA , just go where it's paying good , but I've come acrossed lots of Viking cars.

                    We just took posession of two new Killers. We havent raced them yet, but I can say that the quality and craftsmanship is better than any car Ive had, Been racing 25 years. They seam very knowledgable and will build your car to suit you. You dont get a cookie cutter racecar. They have some great theory's on their chassis design. They have been very busy building new cars this year. They wont build more than 50 a year. So they can keep that personal relationship with their customers. Im not here to down any other builder, Just telling you that we have had a GREAT purchase experience with the guys at Killer. Im thrilled with our relationship up to this point. Give John a call at (859) 748-6180

                      Revolution seems to be a really good race car. I have seen bare frame pics of the Viking and its design is very different from your normal LM, I like what they have done with it and I think that it has potential to be a really good car. Josh Mcguire has started building his own race cars. He ran his own several times at the end of last year to work the bugs out a fix a few things. He is really happy with it and has sold several frames over the winter.

                        I work on a team that has a 2012 Revelution and it has been an awesome car. We have had Mastersbilt,Swartz, and TNT cars also drove a GRT. We won features in all of them but the new Revelution is the best car that we have ever had. Frank is never to busy to help and is a great set-up guy. I know that Danny People's will be in a Revelution as well as a dealer for them. Michael Chilton, Victor Lee, Aaron Ridley, Greg Johnson all will be driving a Revelution this year and there are more just havnt got any names yet. Go with the Revelution

                          I was giving you my experience with the Revelution. I would call up all the builders you listed and just talk them. After talking you may just click with a certain builder and decide on that chassis. It would be a good idea to go to their shop and see the cars being built, that would get you some face time with the builder. Good luck with your choice

                            The Revelution adds seem very affordable, but what length rear and rack sizes do they use. The chassis, decking, box, and front suspension price is very reasonable, might give a look if we knew what they usedfor bolt ons.

                              We used the rear-end out of our 2011 TNT car, but Frank has his own style birdcage that he wants you to use. I'm not sure right off the top of my head what the rack length is. Like I said call Frank at the shop, if you can use something off the car you have now he will tell you. He will not make you buy new stuff if you don't need too. I can get you the number if you would like.
