Evolution Becomes Revolution! Together with world-class driver Dominic Greiner, we took a close look at the X20. No stone has been left unturned; we improved every single detail that we believed would make a difference. We enhanced the flex characteristics, optimized the geometry, improved the shock geometry, lowered the centre of gravity, and, last but not least, increased reliability—these were all part of the revolution.

New key Features:

DRIVESHAFTS:

Here we worked on every detail to improve any little twitch

Progressive shocks remain available as options.

SHOCKS:

We have introduced a new 13mm big bore linear shock absorber. Machined shock pistons are included as standard to ensure maximum smoothness and durability.

MODIFIED UPRIGHT INSERTS:

The new inserts have an adjusted offset, enabling compatibility with all brands of rims without requiring special hexes or shims.

Double diff height excentres:

The X25 features a unique double eccentric diff height adjustment, allowing for a wide range of adjustments without the need to change the bulkheads.

UPPER ARM DESIGN:

The upper arms have been reinforced, and we are using slightly different materials. This results in a tougher arm that is stronger and improves traction. Additionally, the front arm now includes an adjustable body support screw, which helps maintain a more consistent body height.

IMPROVED ANTI-ROLL BAR LINKAGE:

The linkages for the anti-roll bars have been improved quite a bit. The new construction is more precise and allows for easier adjustment of the tweak.

And the shock pickup position has been adjusted for improved shock geometry.

LOWER ARM DESIGN:

The proven arm design with various carbon inserts has been retained.

UPPER ARM MOUNT FR/RR :

The assembly of the upper arm mount has been completely redesigned. It is stiffer, more accurate, and lighter.

The design still features incremental adjustment options.

SHOCK TOWERS FR/RR :

Our split shock tower design has been modified for better integration with the upper arm mounts. As a result, it is now significantly more durable and reliable, while also being lighter!

TOP DECK:

"The split top deck philosophy has been maintained for the X25, but the range has shifted towards a softer feel. This change has led to improved performance with the new chassis shape."

Our optional chassis available for the X25 are a 1.2 mm steel chassis #402152 features a PVD coating, which significantly reduces wear due to its exceptional hardness. And a aluminium coated chassis #402145

CHASSIS:

Of course, our new chassis are symmetric once again. However, our flex philosophy has changed significantly. We took a fresh look at this and developed a different shape that greatly improved the car's handling!

The driveshafts now feature 2 type of joint-crosses to deliver super smooth transmission.
