Schumacher have announced two new chassis plates for their Mi4CX touring car. The new chassis features a different material construction compared to their standard kit configuration and has been under development by their team for several months and used by Martin Hofer to take his 2 recent victories in the ETS series. The chassis is softer in side to side twist yet stiffer forward to back, preventing flex under hard acceleration and braking. Overall testing has shown this will give the cars more traction under the majority of conditions. Available in 2mm and 2.5mm versions.
