Competition Grade Carbon Chassis for Optima Mid SP

The Kyosho OTW162 Carbon Chassis is produced for the Optima Mid SP to increase torsional rigidity while trimming excess weight. Its carbon construction offers a solid base for sharper steering and improved tyre grip.

How Carbon Affects Vehicle Dynamics

Carbon fibre minimises unwanted flex, which helps maintain consistent suspension geometry under load. The OTW162 contributes to a more predictable handling envelope and steadier cornering behaviour.

Engineered for the Optima Mid SP Layout

Cut and drilled to suit the Optima Mid SP configuration, the OTW162 preserves original fitment points while enhancing structural performance. The precise pattern eases the fitting process and supports compatibility with related parts.

Upgrade Path for Serious Tuners

For tuners looking to refine balance and feedback, the Kyosho OTW162 Carbon Chassis provides a reliable platform to tune suspension and weight distribution. Its robust, light design holds up under competitive conditions.
Remark :
Due to limited stock availability, please notice that some Kyosho items may have to order from the factory and the ready time is around 4-6 weeks. Customer purchases the item is assumed to accept the waiting time which allows us to order directly from the manufacturer if the item is out of our warehouse.

Will this chassis require body modifications?

In most cases the OTW162 fits without altering the body, but verify clearances on heavily modified cars before final assembly.

Is carbon more fragile than stock materials?

Carbon is stiffer and can crack under severe impact, but it resists regular wear and improves chassis control compared with many stock plastics.

Any recommended setup changes after fitting?

Expect to fine tune shock rates and roll characteristics after fitting to fully capitalise on the stiffer chassis behaviour.
