Smokem Racing has released the new T3MX chassis for the popular Xray T3’12 electric tourer. The 2.25mm thick chassis has been designed to provide additional flex, delivering more grip and a wider tuning window. This allows you to dial-in your car over a wider range of temperature and track conditions. The new T3MX design features distinctive curved profile cutouts which alters the flex characteristics of the chassis compared to the stock Xray design. Because of this, the T3MX delivers unparalleled chassis response during quick direction changes and turn-in, while maintaining maximum rear traction.
