Re: Carbon Fiber Chassis
In the past, I have heard of teams using broken carbon-fibre hockey stick shafts as structural members to get around the cost issue. If you've got a fairly high-level hockey club in your town (WHL/OHL/AHL/QMJHL), you might be able to pick up the shafts and process them into strong, light frame or superstructure portions.
