Chrysler The Frame

The frame on the Chrysler is a built up channel, the top and bottom flanges are 1/8"x3/4" and the web is 16 gauge cold rolled steel. The Main depth mid span is 3.25" overall, this was based on the scale and also what I thought would match the tube steel that is used in the classic method. The car was drawn in cad so that the frame could be printed out on paper as a template full size, it was also beneficial to have a cad drawing in the garage during constriction.

I like the rear break device on body. I guess his means Cyclekarts can use moveable spoilers in racing. I couldn't use moveable devices in SCCA racing. John
