MA chassis in pursuit of driving efficiency
“MA” is an abbreviation for Midship AERO. The “MS chassis” with a mid-engined layout with a double shaft motor mounted in the center of the car body, and the “AR chassis” designed with special attention to the airflow (aero) during driving. The “MA chassis” is a combination of the excellent features of each in a single chassis. Of course, by making use of the racing know-how accumulated so far, we have thoroughly refined the running performance by equipping it with a 3.5: 1 gear ratio, 6 low friction resin rollers, and a rear skid bar as standard equipment. In addition, the adoption of an integrated monocoque structure improves ease of assembly and maintainability. It is a chassis that can be used for a wide range of purposes, from beginners to veteran racers, from street races on small courses to official competitions on large special 5-lane circuits.
