Hello Andy

well done on your carbon chassis project!
i know the challenges first hand.
is it a Pre preg carbon fibre that you used?
And what weight saving did you achieve versus a standard steel chassis?
did you use any anti splittering kevar in the structure?
Regards

Thanks.

It is Pre Preg Carbon.

Weight saving over a standard chassis is approx 149 kgs or 327 lbs.

Thanks

We are now using a higher spec core on all of the Carbon Fibre monocoque chassis.

The foil used is a higher spec with a smaller cell size resulting in reduced weight with increased strength.

The additional weight saving on the tub is 8.2 Kgs or 18.02 Lbs.

Thanks

We have now introduced a full carbon panel kit to go with the Carbon chassis.

This kit includes the rear bulkhead, gearlinkage cover and all inspection hatches.

Thanks
