Chassis Weight for Setup Adjustments

Tweaking chassis mass is a straightforward way to influence handling balance. The Serpent SER401961 5g chassis weight is intended for the Medius X20 '21 series and enables racers to make targeted adjustments to stability and turn-in behaviour.

Compatibility with Medius X20 '21

The 5g unit is designed to fit the Medius X20 '21 without modifications, sitting in the appropriate mounting area. Strategic positioning helps improve traction during cornering phases and under acceleration.

On-Track Benefits and Predictability

Adding weight low on the chassis reduces roll and can increase cornering confidence, allowing drivers to maintain higher average speeds. The Serpent 5g weight is a compact, repeatable component for fine tuning setups at the track.

When should I consider adding this chassis weight?

Consider the 5g weight when you need more mid-corner stability or when the car feels light on exit. Use it alongside suspension and tyre adjustments for balanced results.

Will this change handling more at the front or rear?

The effect depends on where you locate the weight; central low placement increases overall stability, while forward or rearward placement shifts bias accordingly. Trial different positions to tune understeer or oversteer.

Is the Serpent SER401961 suitable for competition use?

It is designed for the Medius X20 '21 and is commonly used for setup tuning in competitive settings. Always check class weight rules before making changes for race day.

How do I maintain the weight for long term use?

Keep it clean and check fixing screws regularly to prevent loosening. Inspect for corrosion or damage if the car is used in damp conditions.

Should I combine this with other setup changes?

Yes. Treat the 5g weight as one variable in a wider setup plan; adjust springs, ride height and diff settings gradually to find the best overall balance.
