*Gene "The Machine" Hickerson * Jason Ashton
Choice of USA National Champions Andrew Smolnick, Jason Ashton, and Gene Hickerson
The Matrix Pro is CEN뭩 no holds barred approach to 1/8th scale buggy racing. Everything that our factory could lighten and strengthen has been done. Our three National Champion drivers, Jason Ashton, Andy Smolnik, and Gene Hickerson have refined the original Matrix C-1 and the result is the a masterpiece of CNC Aluminum, carbon fiber, and serious race engineering.
At the center of the Matrix Pro is a 3mm hard anodized chassis that has been machined throughout to reduce weight. The Matrix Pro chassis is not only stronger than the rugged 7075 Chassis on the Matrix C-1 it뭩 over 3 oz lighter as well! Teamed with the stiff carbon radio tray, the Matrix Pro gains even more rigidity to ensure the Matrix Pro뭩 suspension does its job.
Differentials are one of the biggest components to a car and to help maintain a low CG for razor sharp handling on the track, there are pockets machined on the Matrix Pro Chassis to lower the CG even further. Notice the machined slots underneath the fuel tank, CEN Engineers even removed material from that low stress area to shave a few more extra grams. Anywhere that our engineers could lighten they did, but all without compromising the performance of the Matrix Pro.
Thick carbon fiber shock towers front and rear. Carbon Fiber doesn뭪 bend, so you won뭪 have to worry about your shock towers being tweaked or doing a hack job of bending your shock towers back in place. Not only is Carbon Fiber strong, it뭩 also lightweight, saving you a few more precious ounces. Along with the carbon shock towers we뭭e even included a carbon center diff plate can carbon top plate for that factory ride look.
In the market for new 1/8th scale buggy this season, pick up a Matrix Pro and drive your way to the top like the CEN Factory Team.

CNC 7075 Chassis Brace:
CNC 7075 Aluminum Machined Chassis Stiffeners are included in anodized red to add strength and stiffen up the Chassis. 7075 Machined Chassis Brace adds durability to the chassis while making it more rigid for racing purposes.
| CNC 7075 Steel Main T46 Gear
The CNC Steel Spur is not only extremely durable, but has been milled to lighten it up. The lighter spur gear reduces the rotating mass which greatly affects the efficiency of the drive train.
| T13 Machined Steel clutch bell:
standard on Factory Race edition. Vented to keep the clutch cool and allow debris to exit. Extreme durable and performance guarantee. |
