its 2mm,a little overkill maybe but still light.
i may try to get some 1.5,we have a company that makes it near us,it cost me £9 to make the chassis and i still have a little left over to make another bottom chassis...i may make a really small one like 1/43 scale

I've been looking since I saw this
When I find the cheapest place, I'll let you know . . . if you find some let me know too. I think we should be able to find some fairly cheap.
So far, I've only found some on ebay and http://www.sozbots.com/stores/wheelstore.htm, but I'm going to keep looking.

Cutting?
Did you find carbon fiber to require special cutting tools?
This is very interesting.
