Hard composite plastic chassis from Scaleauto for the LMBH Supertrofeo Evo2 models. Designed to provide structural rigidity and flat cornering on tracks with a high level of grip, whether wooden or plastic. The reference SC-6686A for those seeking predictable performance in competition.
The hard chassis from Scaleauto designed to get the best out of the Supertrofeo Evo2 on track
The SC-6686A is the hard compound plastic chassis that Scaleauto has specifically developed for the LMBH Supertrofeo Evo2 body. Within the brand's 1/32 spare parts range, this chassis plays a key role: it defines the dynamic behaviour of the car, and the choice of compound —hard or soft— radically changes how the model responds on track.
Function and performance
A hard compound chassis offers greater structural rigidity compared to soft compound versions. This has direct and measurable consequences during the race:
- Flatter cornering: by flexing less, the car maintains a more stable posture during direction changes.
- Reduction of bounce: during hard accelerations or sudden braking, the rigidity prevents the chassis from absorbing energy uncontrollably.
- Predictable behaviour: ideal for drivers who prefer to adjust the car systematically through other parameters (tyres, magnet, tilt) without the chassis introducing additional variables.
Its black colour is not merely aesthetic: it responds to the manufacturing process and the specific compound used by Scaleauto for this version.
Compatibility
This chassis is designed for the LMBH Supertrofeo Evo2 models from Scaleauto in 1/32 scale. If your car belongs to another generation of the Supertrofeo range or to a different body, please check the corresponding reference before purchasing, as the geometries are not interchangeable between families.
Assembly and preparation
Changing the chassis on a 1/32 slot car is one of the most common preparation operations in club racing. Some aspects to consider:
- Check the axle alignment after assembly: a small deviation can penalise lap times more than the chassis compound itself.
- Adjust the tilt with the appropriate metric screws for the grip level of your usual track.
- If you combine this chassis with a motor pod in Anglewinder or Inline configuration, ensure that the pod is compatible with the geometry of the SC-6686A.
- The hard compound performs better on tracks with high grip (wood or plastic with good adhesion). On tracks with low grip or very technical circuits with slow corners, considering the soft compound may be more appropriate.
Common mistakes
- Mixing generations: do not assume that all Supertrofeo chassis are interchangeable. The Evo2 has its own dimensions.
- Ignoring the type of track: a hard compound on a low-grip track can be twitchy. The choice of chassis should always go hand in hand with the track profile.
- Not checking alignment after assembly: even a factory chassis may need a slight adjustment before the first qualifying lap.
Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between the hard and soft chassis from Scaleauto?
The hard compound offers greater structural rigidity, resulting in flatter and more predictable behaviour, especially on high-grip tracks. The soft compound allows for more flex and torsion, better absorbing track irregularities and being more versatile in variable grip conditions.
Is this chassis compatible with other models in the Supertrofeo range?
The SC-6686A is specifically designed for the Supertrofeo Evo2. Direct compatibility with earlier or later versions of the range is not guaranteed. Always check the exact reference before replacing it.
What type of motor pod does this chassis accept?
According to the technical description of the family, it is compatible with pods in Anglewinder and Inline configurations. Always ensure that the pod you are going to mount is compatible with the dimensions of the SC-6686A.
For what type of track is the hard compound most recommended?
The hard compound works best on tracks with high grip, whether they are wood or well-prepared plastic. On tracks with less adhesion, the soft compound usually offers a balance that is easier to manage.
Can I use this chassis in federated or club competitions?
It depends on the regulations of the specific competition. In club championships that allow the use of replacement chassis from the car's own brand, the SC-6686A is a valid option. Always check the rules of your category before preparing the car.
Do I need any specific tools for assembly?
The standard assembly requires precision screwdrivers and, depending on the tilt adjustment you are looking for, a wrench for metric screws. No specialised tools are needed beyond the usual ones for preparing 1/32 slot cars.
The Scaleauto SC-6686A is a hard compound plastic chassis designed for the LMBH Supertrofeo Evo2 body in 1/32 scale. This black hard chassis delivers superior structural rigidity, flat cornering behaviour and reduced bounce under heavy acceleration, making it a top choice for club racing and competitive slot car setups on high-grip wooden or plastic tracks. Compatible with Anglewinder and Inline motor pod configurations, it is a key spare part for Scaleauto GT racing builds.
