This Chassis Features a Very Rigid Semi-Monocoque Center Rib Design with Important Areas, Such As, Roll Center Locations, SwingArm Lengths, Anti-Dive, Anti-Squat and Center of Gravity Optimized for High Speed Handling.

Racefab builds road race style Diablo chassis that are designed with high torsional rigidity and suspension points placed in the right location for optimal handling. Our road race savvy was earned on the twisty professional circuit where Racefab chassis have won I.M.S.A. & S.C.C.A. championships. Depend on the same quality that made Motorsports Legend Carroll Shelby turn to Racefab for his Shelby Can-Am series.

Here are some additional photos showing our 2002 design which differs with new, larger engine bay to accommodate V-8, V-10 & V-12 engines, plus improved by finite element analysis center rib attachment.
