Remarks – 3-time World Champion Marc Rheinard is running the all new TRF418 from Tamiya, the successor to the World Championship winning TRF417 chassis. The car is mostly new with a new higher top deck and bulkheads by 1.5mm as well as a new motor mount which sees the motor moved more inward and forward than its predecessor. Other new parts include the wishbones, steering blocks, uprights, ARB mounts and updated steering rack. Having tested the car at the Mibocup here in Hrotovice as well as in France and Slovakia in the past weeks, the car is still having a problem with being able to push the car, it currently understeering as well as grip rolling in the corners, something he believes a softer chassis would fix, but he doesn’t have one available to him.
