The pinnacle of shaft drive 4WD touring chassis
A brand new chassis that bears the name of the pinnacle of shaft drive 4WD touring chassis “TB EVO” will be released for the first time in five years. By combining a new-shaped carbon chassis with a minimal upper deck, it achieves optimum pitching rigidity and a low center of gravity for driving. The main chassis also adopts a mechanical plate and center stiffener. The front and rear aluminum bulkheads have also been redesigned to provide superior strength and drive efficiency. The suspension uses the same upper and lower arms as the TA08 PRO to maximize tire grip. SSBB (Super Short Big Bore) dampers are standard equipment for both front and rear. The motor mount has a structure that allows easy backlash adjustment, and two types of motor layout can be selected: front mid/rear mid. Based on the data obtained from the previous “TB EVO” series, we pursued speed, maneuverability, and maintainability, and the “TB EVO.8” was born.
