Carbon brace tuned for GTX flat chassis

This stiff carbon center mounting front brace is built for GTX flat chassis configurations. It ties the front bulkhead to the centre two-speed gearbox to reduce chassis flex and provide more predictable responses in high-speed turns.

As an aftermarket tuning piece, the brace focuses on raising torsional stiffness: steering becomes more immediate, corner entries are crisper, and overall handling stays consistent under medium to high traction. The carbon construction yields firmer feedback without modifying suspension geometry.

Installation advice: mount the brace between the stock front bulkhead and the central 2-speed unit using the existing attachment points on GTX 2026 style layouts. Confirm gearbox clearance and observe original screw torque values to avoid concentrating stresses in the carbon part.

Specifications

  • Item: Carbon center mounting front brace, stiff, flat chassis
  • Material: Carbon fiber

Use this brace as a tuning option to bias the chassis towards a firmer front end on medium to high-traction tracks, improving responsiveness while keeping stability.
Remark :
Due to limited stock availability, please notice that some XRAY items may have to order from the factory and the ready time is around 4-6 weeks. Customer purchases the item is assumed to accept the waiting time which allows us to order directly from the manufacturer if the item is out of our warehouse.

How durable is the carbon brace under regular use?

The carbon layup is designed for tuning use; it holds up well under normal track conditions but should be inspected after impacts or heavy loading for any signs of delamination.

Does this upgrade require chassis retuning?

Because the brace raises front-end stiffness, minor suspension or anti-roll bar adjustments may be needed to restore balance, particularly on high-traction surfaces.

Is the part a direct replacement for any stock item?

This is a tuning accessory rather than a replacement for suspension or steering parts. It uses stock mounting points but does not substitute for damaged components.

What should I check after installation?

After fitting, verify clearance around the gearbox, confirm all fasteners are torqued to specification, and perform a short test run to assess handling changes.
