The car is industrially 3d printed using SLS technology, allowing for near isotropic mechanical properties, good detail and an incredibly durable body.
Apart from rigourous on-track testing, advanced FEM simulations have been used to simulate real-world scenarios to get a better understanding of how the car functions under load, and to optimise movement and flex for maximum performace.
The car will be available with three different motor configurations, a 15° anglewinder FK-180, a sidewinder FC-130 and a sidewinder FF050. Original offset will be 0.80 mm, but almost anything can be made on request.

There will be two differet stiffnesses of chassis available, a softer white chassis, and a stiffer glass-infused grey chassis. All cars will ship with the softer chassis, and with the optional stiff chassis soon available through shapeways, alog with one especially designed for digital racing.
The cars will all be sold as unpainted kits that require some sanding and filling to get optimal painting results. Apart from a complete body the kit includes one chassis, one motorpod, wheel inserts and two guides. Total price is expected to be around 65€, with worldwide shipping at 15€
Due to largely unkown production quantities and lead times of 5-7 days, it´s best for everyone interested to send an email expressing interest to jona@201slotcars.se to guarantee one when they are ready.
With kind regards
Jona Nolåkers
