RCR-40 is 12,235 Nm/degree bare chassis without roll cage or actually anything attached including drivetrain etc.

The chassis testing method used here in Australia for registration compliance is not a strict chassis test, so it is impossible to compare numbers with overseas chassis tests. Expect lower numbers when tested here. You can compare figures within Australia, but even the suspension attachment method and design affects the final numbers produced.

The body attachment method used by ERA will make for better torsional results.

Also a heads up in case you have not noticed, but ERA offset their tunnel, so less room on the right hand side of the cockpit for pedals etc.

Glen, thanks for the heads up on meeting you down there. Nice talking to you again.

Have PM'd you the details of the engineer we use in SA.
