Tuning benefits of a softer topdeck

The Serpent SER402186 Topdeck soft comes as a two-piece set designed for the Medius X26 steel EP (SER400052) chassis. The softer material lowers chassis stiffness relative to harder decks, which influences mid-corner grip and the way weight shifts through transitions.

Installation fits the Medius X26 steel EP stock mount points and uses existing hardware, allowing a direct swap with the original topdeck. Ensure the deck seats flat and screws are torqued evenly to avoid inducing chassis twist; check wheel alignment and run short test laps after any change to confirm effects.

Practical tuning: deploy the soft topdeck to soften either the front or rear response based on its location in the stack, and tune springs and anti-roll bars accordingly to maintain a balanced setup. Track times or driver feedback are useful to validate changes.

How will lap times typically respond to this change?

Lap times may improve if the softer deck brings better mid-corner traction for the given surface. Improvements depend on track conditions and how well the deck change is integrated with spring and swaybar settings.

Does this require modifying mounting hardware?

No modifications are expected. The part is designed for use with the standard Medius X26 steel EP mounting points and original hardware for a straightforward swap.

What should I combine this with for best results?

Combine the soft topdeck with spring and anti-roll bar adjustments to fine-tune balance. Make one change at a time and record feel or lap times to judge benefit.
