WeiRC DLC Steel Chassis 1,2mm for Awesomatix A800RR (142g) - Black A800R-DLC

If you have been chasing that last bit of consistency on carpet or turf, the chassis under your car matters more than most people admit. WeiRC built this DLC coated steel chassis specifically for the Awesomatix A800RR, and the difference in feel is something you notice from the very first run.

At 1.2mm thick and weighing in at 142 grams, this chassis sits in a sweet spot that competitive carpet racers have been gravitating toward. It is stiff enough to give you predictable steering response corner to corner, yet it carries just enough flex to keep the rear planted when you are pushing hard through a sweeper. Steel at this thickness does not behave like aluminum, and that is exactly the point. You get a more progressive breakaway, which means more time to catch a slide before it becomes a spin.

The DLC (Diamond Like Carbon) coating is not just cosmetic. It reduces surface friction where the chassis contacts the carpet, which translates to smoother, more consistent flex behavior over the course of a long main. It also adds meaningful scratch and wear resistance, so this chassis holds up through seasons of hard use without the surface degradation you see on uncoated alternatives.

This is a direct fit for the A800RR platform. No modifications, no guesswork. You bolt it in and go racing.

Who This Is For

This chassis is built for the racer who already knows the A800RR platform and wants to explore what a steel flex setup can do for their driving. If you are running carpet nationals, regional club racing, or just want a more forgiving chassis tune without changing your geometry, this is a straightforward upgrade worth trying.
