Ford GT GT3 Flex Chassis (Blue)

Sideways Flexible Chassis for the Ford GT GT3 — Ready to Perform from the First Turn

The SWFGTA1 chassis from Sideways is the specific flexible (flex) chassis for their Ford GT GT3 model, in blue finish. This is an original spare part that allows you to replace the stock chassis or experiment with different degrees of flexibility to adapt the car to the conditions of each track.

Function and Features of the Flex Chassis

Flexible chassis are one of the most common adjustments in the preparation of competitive slot cars. Unlike rigid chassis, the flex chassis allows for slight controlled torsion in the car's body, improving tyre contact with the track in corners and uneven sections. The result is smoother driving and greater overall stability.

Assembly and Preparation

As this is an original spare part from Sideways, the assembly follows the same process as the stock chassis. It does not require additional modifications for basic installation, although, as with any slot preparation, careful adjustment of the guide, braids, and mechanical assembly will help to get the most out of the new chassis.

Who is this chassis for?

It is especially useful for enthusiasts participating in clubs or experimenting with the preparation of their cars. It is also practical as a replacement for those who have damaged the original chassis and want to replace the part with a component from the same brand.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between a flex chassis and a rigid one?

The flexible chassis allows for slight controlled torsion that improves tyre contact with the track, especially in corners and surfaces with small irregularities. The rigid chassis offers greater precision on very technical and smooth layouts. The choice depends on the type of circuit and driving style.

Does the blue colour indicate any specific technical characteristic?

In the Sideways catalogue, the colour of the chassis may indicate the degree of flexibility or the version of the product. We recommend consulting the manufacturer's technical sheet or contacting us if you need to confirm the exact degree of this chassis.

Is it compatible with other bodies or models from Sideways?

It is specifically designed for the Sideways Ford GT GT3. We do not guarantee compatibility with other bodies or models from the catalogue without prior verification.

Do I need special tools to install it?

No special tools are required beyond the usual ones for slot preparation: precision screwdrivers and, depending on the adjustments you want to make, basic preparation tools. Brands like Sloting Plus offer a good selection of tools for this type of work.

Does it come with a guide, braids, or motor included?

This product is solely the chassis. The guide, braids, motor, and other components are not included.
