The Contrast NEOX is the new proposal of Contrast for the competition season 2010.
This evolution of our well know Contrast Neo 2.5 ‘09 is a change in our design style and our selection of materials.
The NEOX is the result of a lot of hours on track, testing new
set-ups, new geometries, new parts... a lot of mails with our team
drivers around the world... a lot of hours with a hot coffee cup
talking with our technical advisers and factory drivers Josep Amat,
Hessel Roskam and Ian Oddie. Almost all their suggestions are inside
the NEOX that is ready for you.
The NEOX have a bigger presence of Carbon fibre together our best
aluminium 7075T6. Both materials working together offer the best
flexibility and rigidity in the chassis beside a racing look, hardness
and lightness.
The areas were we have work to evolve the Neo 2.5 ‘09 to the NEOX are:
1) New chassis 8 mm shorter. With two possible wheelbase 527 mm and
519 mm. The shorter wheelbase of Neo 2.5 ‘09 is the longer wheelbase of
NEOX, and it have other new position 8 mm shorter.
2) New front uprights with king pin 0º and new roll centre to
improve the easy drive in fast corners. It let to use new tyres GRP C
in front axle.
3) New side chassis mounts with a middle part adjustable in carbon
fibre. Adding or removing screws you can change the chassis rigidity.
4) New lower front wishbones with nice design and less interference with the upright and suspension movements.
5) New upper front wishbones with nice round design and easy system to fix the turnbuckle and rod end of the upright.
6) New radio plate in carbon fibre for two small servos. Better and
nice design with 9 fix points that let to remove the 4 main screws to
the side mounts and to have a very smooth chassis, good for rainy
conditions. There is a optional radio plate for one big servo, Rhino
size.
7) New front support for body shell with wide and advanced position to fix the body without vibrations.
8) New side protections in carbon fibre adapted to NEOX and Neo 2.5 ‘09 body side mounts.
9) New external cover of the brake’s callipers. Very hard and light
with a big screw to a fine and easy adjust of the shoes and disk. New
disk of white-green fibre.
10) New rear shock support in carbon fibre.
11) New rear lower wishbones with a new system to adjust the toe in
and better rigidity that avoid the vibrations of the upright when
throttle.
12) New Hybrid Differential that will offer you a new level of traction unknown for you until now.
13) New rear adjustable roll bar 5 mm thicker.
