The Evo6 chassis for Ford GT40 (SICS18T-60B) is the benchmark platform for those looking to get the most out of this iconic model on track. Designed with serious tuning criteria, it combines structural rigidity and optimised geometry for precise and consistent response in every corner.
The chassis that the Ford GT40 deserves: precision, rigidity, and real on-track performance
The Evo6 Chassis for Ford GT40 with reference SICS18T-60B is the preparation solution designed for enthusiasts and club competitors who want to transform their GT40 into a truly competitive car. The evolution of the Evo line reaches its sixth generation, bringing refinements in geometry, weight distribution, and torsional stiffness that are noticeable from the first lap.
Features and Highlights
- Evo6 Generation: the most evolved iteration of this chassis line, with accumulated improvements from each previous version.
- Reference SICS18T-60B: precise identification to ensure exact compatibility with the corresponding Ford GT40 body.
- Optimized structural rigidity: minimizes unwanted flex that generates unpredictable behaviour in fast corners and braking.
- Geometry designed for the GT40: respects the silhouette and dimensions of the body, ensuring a clean fit without additional modifications.
On-Track Behaviour
A well-designed chassis is the foundation of everything: a powerful motor or perfect braids are of no use if the platform on which the car rests does not faithfully transmit the driver's intentions. The Evo6 is designed to offer predictable and balanced handling, essential in both recreational practice sessions and club championship training. The weight distribution proposed by this chassis favours stability in high-speed corners, a critical point in a model with the aerodynamic and low-profile characteristics of the Ford GT40.
Assembly and Preparation
The installation of the Evo6 follows the usual procedures in the preparation of competitive slot cars. Before assembly, it is advisable to check the alignment of the rear axle and ensure that the guide is well centred. It is recommended to adjust the ride height and check that the braids make clean contact with the track from the very first moment. A careful setup on the bench before running on track saves time and improves results from the start.
Ideal for…
- Club competitors looking for a serious preparation platform for the Ford GT40.
- Slot enthusiasts who want to improve the dynamic behaviour of their car without resorting to invasive modifications.
- Preparers who desire a solid base on which to work on setup with the usual adjustments of springs, axle, and bearings.
Aspects to Consider
Always verify the complete reference SICS18T-60B before placing your order to ensure that the chassis corresponds exactly to the version of the Ford GT40 body you have. The chassis from the Evo line are designed with tight tolerances, so using the correct reference is crucial for a hassle-free assembly.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which Ford GT40 body is this chassis compatible with?
The Evo6 chassis SICS18T-60B is specifically designed for the Ford GT40 body indicated in its reference. We recommend checking the chassis reference against your body reference before assembly to ensure exact compatibility.
What advantage does the Evo6 generation offer over previous versions?
The Evo line accumulates refinements in rigidity, geometry, and weight distribution with each new version. The sixth generation incorporates corrections and improvements derived from on-track experience with previous models, resulting in more predictable and consistent behaviour.
Is it valid for universal track or sport track?
Compatibility with the track system (universal or sport) mainly depends on the guide and braids installed, not the chassis itself. The Evo6 chassis supports standard guide configuration; consult the assembly specifications to confirm which guide best fits your setup.
Do I need special tools to assemble it?
The assembly does not require tools outside of the usual ones found in a slot workshop. A preparation bench, precision screwdrivers, and a gauge to check axle alignment are sufficient for a correct installation.
Can I use this chassis in club competition?
Yes, the Evo line is precisely aimed at competition preparation. Before participating, check the technical regulations of your championship to confirm that the chassis meets the specifications of the corresponding category.
