A narrow chassis with as much weight as close to the center line as possible also makes the car react and change directions more quickly.

Good idea, we're looking into it, but it will be a while.

Default motor mount ?

For those that decide to run a small can motor like the cc 2400 will the stock motor mount work or will a different mount need to be purchased?

No need for separate mounts with our new car/system. We found a way to provide all of the options with one mount.

It also helps the car transition weight from side to side. This makes the car more responsive and gives more grip in the corners. This is called the cars polar moment of inertia. Narrow cars have a smaller polar moment and the suspension has to do much less work to switch from turning left to turning right.

ROAR rules state 296mm maximum track width. The EB48 is 306mm minimum. If that falls under any club rules, then you're good to go. Otherwise, probably not .
