Chassis Tuning - Modification and Fabrication
As Colin Chapman once said ‘simplify and add lightness’. The best race cars are the ones that achieve their pace with the simplest designs. That way there is less to go wrong and they are lighter. Weight, or lack of it, improves everything. Acceleration, braking, fuel efficiency, transitional handling, tyre degradation and so on. Minimising weight is our top priority when developing a car as it is normally cheaper to do than spending out on engine upgrades and returns great rewards. We can take care of the work or simply offer advice. When reducing weight it is important to maintain structural rigidity.
Our services include custom fabrication work from four link set ups through to space frame construction, specialising in shell preparation. The only thing weight reduction will not help with is top speed. For this you’ll need to lower your drag co-efficient. We can offer the same services for your aerodynamic needs, whether it's reducing lift, drag or moving the aerodynamic point of pressure to stabilise the car at high speed.
When it comes to modifying the cars mechanical components there are virtually no limits to to the upgrades that are available for most cars. Some modifications are simple such as bolt on brake callipers or shock absorber kits. If off the shelf parts are not available our technicians can design and fabricate solutions to provide the improvements you require. Many years of racing experience helps us integrate the modifications into your car to keep the whole car performing as a completely synchronised package.
