CRG RS4 and RS5

Wondering about these chassis (especially RS4). There's very little out there in the WWW about them. Are they used with success? Thinking about WF on one.

Cheers,
Mike.

Should be a fine chassis for World Formula. CRG knows what they're doing and starting with something engineered for 4 cycle will make it easier to get dialed in.

Do you have a line on a used one or are you buying new?

Cheers,

Thanks - yeah I see a used 2011 RS4. I guess they updated quite a bit after that with the 5. I am a bit nervous about the 28mm tubing. I am 175lb 6' and want to use it on both grippy and less grippy tracks. There are a lot of CRGs around here though for support - if it still uses common parts.

I wouldn't worry to much about the 28mm tubing, it should still be plenty strong. CRG or aftermarket parts will work fine, just make sure you buy it right so if it doesn't work out for some reason you can throw a clone on it and sell for a profit Wink

Cheers,
