Yokomo SDW custom carpet chassis

Hi there, this project was made by me last year.

Yokomo SDW car is a special chassis made by yokomo in very limited quantity (only 555 kits was realesed worldwide) .

The car was designed for tarmac/asfalt or low grip surface racing with rubber tires.

I found this car very nice to drive but using foams it need some stiffness.

Thanks to my friend Alex ( apaint design artist) i have had a 4mm carbon sheet so i've made a CAD drawing of the new chassis.......the next step was to find someone with a milling CNC machine....after long research i found a nice guy (Pietro) that cutted my sheet in awesome way.....

Tech detail:
