Reflex Racing RX4-16 chassis & T4 shock towers

Reflex Racing RX4-16 chassis & T4 shock towers

Coming from Reflex Racing and made for the Xray T4 touring car are the RX4-16 quasi carbon fibre chassis and 4mm carbon fibre shock towers. Starting with the chassis plate, the RSD RX4-16 was developed for the Xray T4 and it is made from RSD’s own quasi isotropic 2.0mm carbon fibre for more rigidity, translating into increased response, grip and a lower centre of gravity over the stock unit. The shape profiles for the chassis have been developed over the past year with a focus to provide a more consistent car feel and less tyre overheating over a run. The design moves the flex to the bulkhead areas which results in a car that rotates faster and harder all while maintaining a higher level of grip. Additionally the chassis has been made completely symmetrical so that the left to right flex of the car can be equalised as much as possible.

Also new are the RSD 4mm shock towers for T4. The parts have been developed to increase the response car with the thicker material increases bulkhead stiffness which leads to faster corner speeds and harder rotation. Additionally the towers have been designed to lower the shocks by 0.5mm, while only increasing the weight of the shock towers by 0.7g total for both towers combined.
