Race Focused Solid Axle for TRF 416

The 3RACING 416-12/LB solid axle is intended for competitive tuners running a Tamiya TRF 416 who need a deterministic drivetrain response. By replacing the differential the axle simplifies traction behaviour, helping teams evaluate other setup changes more clearly.

Setup Implications for Racing

In race situations the locked axle reduces drivetrain hysteresis, producing a repeatable power transfer pattern under acceleration. This consistency can be used to refine suspension geometry, weight distribution and tyre selection with fewer drivetrain variables.

Integration and Practical Considerations

Manufactured to align with TRF 416 mounting points, the 3RACING 416-12/LB is compatible with standard assembly practices. It allows quick A/B testing between locked and differential configurations to measure lap time impact and handling tradeoffs.

How does the solid axle affect tuning strategy?

The axle narrows drivetrain variables, letting you focus on suspension and tyre setup. Expect more consistent throttle response when tuning corner exit behaviour.

Is it suitable for time attack and short circuit racing?

Yes, for layouts where stable traction and repeatable runs matter, the 416-12/LB can help deliver predictable lap to lap performance during setup sessions.

What should I monitor during test runs?

Track tyre wear, corner entry speed and exit traction across multiple runs to quantify the axle impact; adjust suspension and drive ratios as required to optimise lap times.
