Mugen Seiki is excited to announce the new MTC-3 electric touring car kit. The MTC-3 is an evolution of the highly successful MTC-2 and MTC-2R platform. The prototype was first raced at the 2024 IFMAR World Championship, where the two MTC-3s entered in the event both qualified for the A-Main final in its first event with Ronald Volker finishing 4th and Jacob Cruz finishing 10th.
The MTC-3 is coming along with a complete new design with the only parts coming from the MTC-2R being drive shafts, spool, diff, and drive belts. The MTC-3 features a 1.5mm aluminum chassis which will work great on asphalt and carpet. The top deck design is unique and the short shocks are rounding out a new beautiful new suspension package. The MTC3 features improved handling, tuning, and lap times!
Chassis New 1,5mm aluminum chassis. Used with standard type screws only (no need for special screws).The new chassis provides a wider range of torsion stiffness adjustments to be able to tune for all track conditions. The new chassis eliminates the need for a carbon chassis option. Lower center of gravity for improved cornering (0.5mm and 0.7mm respectively).The chassis design has less overhang to provide more clearance and reduces the chance of the chassis touching the track surface.
Suspension New carbon lower arm design. New shock and upper arm angle adjustability – no shims needed, no shims to be misplaced. Quicker and easier to make setup adjustments.
Motor mount New designed aluminum motor mount. New adjustable layshaft height. Allows you to use the spur gear in the lowest position possible. Ability to use 90T spur gears for a large range of categories and track conditions (stock and modified).Better weight distribution.
Top deck New carbon top decks with improved top deck position in the car. New top deck allowing the upper bulkhead plates to be removed completely. Easy access to the dear differential without disassembling anything else beside the rear top deck. New bulkheads with compact design.
Shocks New shock tower screw directly to the bulkheads – no additional parts needed (possible to use in fixed or active position).New Short Shocks provide lower center of gravity and improved geomety. New range of ultra-short shock sorings. Reduced weight of the shock package.
New Body posts Easier to mount the body shell. The front has two distances to make body prep easier. The rear has three options available for mounting the body (horizontal, vertical & horizontal with additional part to mount into the wing stay of the bodyshell).The rear has an adjustable suspension up travel stopper included in the kit.
Other new featuresNew body support included in the MTC3 kit.New upper arms with new design using a 6mm ball.Two bodystop positions.Lightweight bumper – carbon upper plate includes an adjustable suspension uptravel limiter.
