Speedmerchant Rev.8 aluminium chassis kit

Speedmerchant have introduced an aluminium main chassis kit for the Rev.8 1/12th scale pan car. A trend in electric touring car racing and now also swinging over to 1/12th scale pan cars are aluminium main chassis plates that make for a smoother ride and higher corner speeds on the latest generation of black high-grip carpets. Using an alloy chassis over the somewhat softer carbon parts will reducing corner digging while also allowing for a lower centre of gravity which further adds to a more pleasant car feeling. Above image of Speedmerchant’s chassis conversion is a production prototype with the actual chassis coming in an anodised satin black finished with carbon fibre battery locators and mounting hardware.
