Coming from Bezerk RC is an asphalt-specific carbon fibre chassis for the CRC CK25 1/12th scale pan car. Designed for low to medium grip levels the main plate offers more flex while the geometry is kept the same but Bezerk reduced the width in many areas, front, mid and rear. The large front window adds more steering and overall added flex improves grip at both ends. Made from 2.5mm carbon with a traditional weave the chassis weighs in at just under 49g. The main plate only suits the conventional servo position and like all Bezerk products it can be customised to suit special needs.
