- GIZMO RACING CARS GZ2A Touring Car Kit -

Future innovation by racers, proved by racers, won by racers

The Gizmo GZ2 2018 is here and it has been refined to an all new level. The new car is more adjustable, more durable and easier to drive. The GZ2 2018 still features our specially patented designed drive-train system, which makes is possible to have a 100% centered drivetrain, not seen before in any high end touring car.

Chassis, Bulkheads, Shock Towers and Top Deck

The new car comes fitted with an all new aluminum chassis, shorter shock towers and a more conventional top deck system and aluminum bulkheads carrying over from the High Traction Conversion Kit. The combination we have found through our testing allows for higher corner speeds and more consistent handling in high grip conditions especially those faced on today’s black carpet track conditions.

DRIVE-TRAIN

Carrying over from the original GZ1, the 2018 version is still built around our highlyefficient double spur gear, belt and pulley driven system that allows for maximum acceleration and insignificant power loss. The front end spool and the rear end gear diff are fitted with 35-tooth pulleys, which are combined with an 18-tooth center pulley for an optimized internal gear ratio. New extra low friction belts, ultra light double joint front universals and rear CVD universals are driven by newly revised high grade alloy out drives that are 1.5mm wider for better drive shaft plunge while still maintaining tremendously low rotational weight.

SUSPENSION

For the 2018 model we have updated the upper arms for more durability and less weight. The Gizmo GZ2 is still fitted with a fully adjustable suspension system; it allows for adjustment of: caster, active-caster, camber, roll center, droop, dive, anti-squat, front toe-in/out, rear toe, linear and active (ARS Type). For minimal un-sprung weight, the Gizmo GZ2 now comesequippedstandard with aluminum lower wishbones. For ease of use and lower parts count the front and rear end wishbones are symmetrical. Additionally, front and rear end anti-roll bars are symmetrical in design and mounted with bearings into the aluminum bulkheads.

LS2 Steering System

More reliable steering system on tracks with hard barriers, which also allows for ackerman adjustment through shim spacing on the steering ball studs.

NEW WIDE FRONT BUMPER

A new wider, light weight front bumper is now included with the GZ2. This bumper protects the front end of your car and bodies better, while maintaining light weight for maximum steering response.
