Hello, I'm working with some CF automotive pieces and now I'm planing to build a CF track frame, but I looking for dropout to insert it and all the dropouts I have seen is for soldering with metal frames. Do you know where can I get alloy or similar dropouts for bond to my CF frame?

carbon plate with some stainless plates bonded or screwed for surface protection.

I think the ends where join to frame need to be longer to bond with epoxy to frame. what do you think?

Definately, you can weld on extensions for bonding. It isn't a big job to get some carbon or aluminium plate and craft some.
