XR-1 Rocket

[Kwoods25]

You CAN buy a bare XR-1 chassis

[CCHIEF]

Apples to oranges

It's Pancho's. The XR-1 is a different car than the blue car, structurally, material, etc. So you bash Rocket, based on a dealer's pricing? Look a little more carefully. Scarcity can drive up market prices, basic supply and demand economics. The XR-1 is in high demand ...and scarce. I see Rocket, Capitol and Longhorn, etc. are not on your Christmas card list then? When your good at what you do customers will seek you out . Rocket is a solid business, with excellent research, customer support and a great product.... always have been. ........................................... "So going off Ponchos site it's a 40% increase for the xr-1 over the blue front. Total ripoff!!!"........................................ ...............................................

Like I said 40% increase. Do you need me to show you how to figure that out?

[CCHIEF]

I scrolled down and saw the other pricing from them. Something is obviously wrong there. Neither of us is wrong, because that site contradicts itself. How to figure that out is to call Rocket and price both cars, period. No malice intended toward you, just basing it off what is on that site. I'll likely talk with them Monday anyway, and get the real $ deal and availability of a bare chassis.

[MBR Performance]

There is so much pricing on his site and there isn't any order to it. It's quite confusing.

[a25rjr]

I think the only difference is the blue price is without a body, just (not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word)pit.

[MBR Performance]

The blue front price I listed is with the body

[a25rjr]

If you look closely, the xr1 pkg comes with rf shutoff, all brake lines, pedals,and mcs. That's about $1500 parts and labor.

[MBR Performance]

I agree with CCHIEF that something isn't right with either the pricing or description because the xr1 package he listed mentions the brake system and so does the blue front price he listed however the blue front price I listed doesn't mention the brake system but it's more than his lol. Wtf?

[a25rjr]

Still waiting on this blast of speed from JO switching to XR1, but it ain't happening. He was better in the BWRC, but had bad luck and motor issues. XR1 isn't magic, just the latest flavor. So whats the front end on this one called, Tooty-Fruity or Rocky Road?

In Joshs case, its called .......LAUNCHING PAD!

[ThebigE]

I wonder how Superman will look in the XR1 next year?

[MasterSbilt_Racer]

I wonder how Superman will look in the XR1 next year?

I would think the same.

I've called all the top people about new cars. Capital was the only one that wouldn't sell me a bare chassis, they wanted to sell me a package. They were probably the highest. Car, uppers, lowers, spindles, (not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word)pit, deck, lines, pedals, shifters, and birdcages was $17,500
Longhorn was $14,500, moyer was about the same, Swartz, MastersBilt, and Kryptonite was the cheapest at around $9,000. I'm down to those three.

[fastford]

when i called long horn last year, they told me the least they would sell a chassis was with the lowers and there spindles , that was 10 grand , the lady there sent me a price list and thats what it said, 10 grand up, so my question is , did they tell you 14,500 for a bare frame?
