Fenix Racing STX 2015 aluminium chassis & link plates

Fenix Racing have introduced an aluminium main chassis plate for the WRC STX 2015 touring car. Machined from 2mm 7075-T6 material and coming black anodised the chassis makes for improved stiffness and thus optimised performance especially on medium to high-bite surfaces. The chassis is of a fully symmetrical design with pockets for the motor and under the rear battery area while a slight herringbone design optimises the flex characteristics. Also coming for the STX are aluminium suspension link plates. The parts are made from 2mm alloy and they sport the same black and silver finish as the chassis.
