Carbon Fibre Monocoque Chassis

We have now started development of an all new carbon fibre monocoque chassis with the help of a qualified design engineer.
This is how all F1 Chassis are now manufactured and some of the more expensive road cars such as the McLaren F1.
The preliminary design work has been completed including the construction of a 1/4 scale model.
If all goes well kit packages based on this chassis will be available for sale before the end of 2008.
We will be using all of the existing TSC GT40 parts with the exception of the front and rear uprights which will be cast in aluminium.
Advantages of a carbon fibre monocoque include very light weight and increased siffness without the disadvantages of corrosion problems which are normally associated with monocoques manufactured in steel or aluminium.
We are hoping to produce a finished car which would weigh only 1700 lbs or 780 kgs.

Details will be added here as the project progresses.

Alternatively please call 01562 820372 for more details
