The Hobby Hideaway Verdict: The Most Versatile Precision Chassis on the Market! At Hobby Hideaway, we’ve seen a lot of 1/28th scale platforms, but the MRT-EVO stands out for its incredible adjustability and out-of-the-box quality. This chassis is a "racer’s dream," offering a direct-drive steering system for razor-sharp response and a double-wishbone suspension for superior mechanical grip. Whether you are building a 90mm short-wheelbase classic or a 102mm GT powerhouse, the MRT-EVO transitions between setups faster than almost any other kit. If you want a platform that grows with your skill level and adapts to any Auto Scale body, this is it.
Precision Engineering Meets Heavy-Mass Stability The MRT-EVO is packed with premium components that usually cost extra. With a rear aluminum bulkhead and aluminum ball differential included as standard, the drivetrain is both durable and smooth. A standout feature is the included 15-gram brass chassis bridge mount; by placing weight exactly where it’s needed, it lowers the center of gravity and significantly reduces the chance of traction rolling during high-speed cornering.
Key Benefits:
Quick-Change Wheelbase: Effortlessly adjust from 90mm to 102mm to accommodate a massive range of bodies.
Direct Drive Steering: Features an aluminum servo horn for zero-slop, instantaneous steering feedback.
Pro-Level Suspension: Double-wishbone front end with quick-adjust caster angles (0°, 1°, 2°, 3°) for fine-tuning corner entry.
High-End Drivetrain: Comes standard with an aluminum ball differential and a full set of precision ball bearings.
Anti-Roll Stability: Included 15g brass bridge mount keeps the car planted and prevents "flipping" on high-grip surfaces.
Ultra-Slim Profile: At a 64mm minimum width (zero offset), it fits almost any Auto Scale body with ease.
