Avid TC6.2 aluminium chassis plate

Avid TC6.2 aluminium chassis plate

Coming from Avid and made for the Team Associated TC6.2 is an optional aluminium main chassis plate. Machined from 2mm 7075-T6 aluminium the chassis offers higher rigidity than the stock carbon fibre chassis, making it especially useful on high to medium-bite surfaces while allowing the suspension brackets to be mounted lower at the same time. Avid signature “herringbone” cut-outs lower the overall weight and give the chassis a unique look while the narrow 84mm width allows for more ground clearance in corners. The chassis comes black anodised, with machined silver edges and laser-etched Avid logos for easy identification.

Features:
– 7075-T6 (2mm) Aluminium anodised black, Avid logo laser etched, and silver edge highlights on both sides
– Cutouts added and existing diff cutouts enlarged to reduce weight and increase flex while being thoughtful to keep enough material on the sides for your speedo to hold with servo tape
– Battery tape on the bottom of the chassis has a cutout slot so it doesn’t interfere with ride height checks or drag on track
– If running flipped bellcranks, you may gain access to tighten the screw by turning your wheels full lock
– 2mm thickness allows for lower CG and ability to lower roll centres more than stock
– Chassis shape is smoothed to keep droop screw platforms from digging into the track during hard cornering
– Chassis narrowed to 84mm allowing the chassis to roll deeper through a corner
– Recommend for use on high to medium bite conditions
