The XRAY 341103 aluminium chassis is tailored for the RX8 2016 to raise handling consistency on circuit layouts. Machined from 5mm Swiss 7075 T6 aluminium with CNC precision, it reduces unnecessary mass while retaining key structural sections. The machining strategy focuses on low-stress zones so the plate remains stiff where required for reliable steering behaviour.
The revised, narrower form factor permits controlled flex that improves tyre adhesion and steering response through corners. By minimising chassis contact during sharp turns, drivers experience fewer sudden losses of speed mid-corner, which helps maintain lap-to-lap consistency.
Constructed from Swiss 7075 T6 alloy, the XRAY 341103 provides a favourable strength-to-weight ratio suited to competition use. Slight longitudinal bending after CNC work is a normal occurrence due to material properties and the manufacturing process and does not indicate diminished performance.
This chassis is a practical upgrade for competitors chasing improved steering accuracy and steadier cornering on tarmac and carpet circuits.
