Setup oriented graphite battery plate for precise chassis response

The 3Racing Sakura D5SGA Graphite Battery Plate model SAK-D5629/BU is engineered to tight tolerances to deliver a stiffer battery mounting solution on the Sakura D5 and D5S. By lowering local mass and reducing flex, the plate sharpens transient response and helps maintain consistent roll characteristics across laps. Its accuracy supports repeatable battery placement, which is useful when dialing in weight distribution and fine tuning suspension settings for competitive runs.

How does the plate influence tuning options?

Increasing stiffness at the battery mount reduces chassis flex, which can allow for softer suspension or different anti-roll bar settings while retaining predictable handling. Use it when testing incremental setup changes.

Any recommended installation checks for race use?

Verify battery sits flat and centreline alignment is maintained. Confirm fastener torque is even and inspect for any play after a few practice runs to ensure consistent behaviour.
