CRC M-200R World GT-R Chassis Kit

Iconic American pancar chassis manufacturer CRC has released its new World GT-R car, the M-200R. A new car platform was a project that started over a year ago, the M-200R is a MetriCks based World GT-R car meaning it uses all-metric hardware and is for 200 mm wide racing on rubber tyres, hence the name M-200R. In the front, the M-200R features CRC’s Ultra-tune suspension. Just change the lower C/C plate (caster/camber plate) and your caster and camber are perfectly set. A “4 -1” plate gives you 4 degrees caster and -1 camber. Switch to the 5 -.5 plate and you have 5 caster and negative .5 degrees of camber. Go smash a bunch of barriers, and your caster + camber settings are still the same. They have a wide range of different combinations available. With a simple and quick change of the C/C plate (caster/camber), you can set caster and camber with precision and ease. No setup station, no guessing, no fiddling – perfect camber and caster is machined into the pieces.
