ARC R11 Mid aluminium main chassis plate

Coming from ARC and made for the R11 Mid 4WD electric touring car conversion kit is an aluminium main chassis plate. The part is machined from high-quality 2.0mm 7075-T6 aluminium and it makes for a more rigid chassis construction, reducing torsional flex compared to the standard carbon fibre chassis for optimised handling in high to very high bite track conditions. The chassis comes black anodised for surface protection and it sports machined silver edge details and chamfered outer edges for less chassis scrub during cornering.
