CEN Racing is proud to announce the new Matrix TR Arena truggy to accompany
the Matrix in CEN’s racing stable. The Matrix TR Arena may look similar at
first glance to the Matrix, but the similarity is only skin deep. The
Matrix TR Arena is not a converted Matrix with long arms. The components
have been redesigned to take the beatings that truggies go through.
Starting with the Big Bore 16.5mm diameter shocks, super long suspension
arms that enable sure and steady handling, rugged 6 gear sealed
differentials that can be fully tuned with silicone diff oil.
CEN Engineers designed
the Matrix TR Arena with high performance, lightweight, ease of adjustment,
along with simple maintenance in mind. The composite arched chassis braces
reduce the chassis flex but without the added weight of using aluminum
braces. And if you want to tune differentials, just remove six screws and
that's it! The Matrix TR arena is a truggy that you won’t dread to wrench
on.
"Along with the new chassis braces, the steering and suspension have been
optimized to work with the larger truck wheels. Truggies are known for
power and the Matrix TR Arena doesn’t disappoint, the TR .28 pull start
engine will have you throwing rooster tails around your backyard in no
time. With all the power the TR .28 puts out, don’t worry about rounding
out those tiny 17mm hex wheels, the Matrix TR Arena comes equipped with 23mm
wheel hexes. If you want a 1/8th scale high power truggy, the
Matrix TR Arena has arrived and is waiting for you at your hobby shop.
144oz, Metal Gear, Ball Bearing Servos The RTR version of Matrix TR Arena includes 144oz high torque
servos for both steering and throttle. Those high torque servos are
made of high qualify aluminum internal gears support by ball
bearings. You will never need to spend $200 to upgrade your servos.
Chassis Braces: The Matrix Arena TR utilizes
composite horizontal arched chassis braces provide an extremely
rigid chassis without compromising the weight of the truck. The
design adds minimal side flex which aids the truck in bumpy
conditions while providing more traction.
Shocks construction: Large 16.5 mm aluminum
shock bodies provide extremely plush suspension that soaks up the
ruts and bumps. Big Bore Shocks with 14mm width pistons and
extremely durable 3.5mm shock shafts.
The suspension geometry is fully adjustable
and offers superior handling in rough conditions. The Matrix Arena
TR utilizes long A arms for added stability and smoother weight
distribution.
Captured Hinge pins: The Matrix Arena TR
uses a captured hinge pin that reduces the use of e clips while
offering a smooth and effective suspension.
Engine Placement: Engine placement is a key
factor in the truggy class. The Matrix Arena TR has the engine
placed more towards the front of the vehicle. This provides the
truck with more steering and effective weight transfer.
Fuel Tank: The Matrix Arena TR fuel tank is
150cc and is equipped with a built in fuel filter and splash
reservoir system. Fuel tank is mounted as close to the chassis as
possible to maximize low CG effect.
4 Disc Metal Brake System. This new system
stops the lighting fast Matrix TR on a dime. Features include vented
brake discs along with fully adjustable front and rear brake
controls. Matrix TR is the only truggy in the market with front/rear
adjustable brakes.
Light weight CNC Steel Spur 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.
Change Setup: Changing your anti squat and
toe in is extremely easy. The anti squat and toe in are both built
into one rear block. Change only one block (4 screws) when changing
your set up. There are 6 different options to choose from. Fine
tuning your Matrix Arena TR is quick and easy with this innovative
system.
Durability you can see: The Matrix Arena TR
utilizes CEN's extremely durable turn buckle system which are very
beefy yet lightweight. The turn buckles are hollow to increase
strength and reduce weight. The rod ends are super thick for
unmatched durability.
23mm wheel hex's for increased durability Matrix TR Arena is equipped with 23 wheel hex. They are 40%
stronger than standard 17mm hex on most trucks. Truck can utilize
standard offset and 1/2in offset 23mm wheels
6 spoke light weight racing wheel with racing pin style threads.
Highly developed soft compound provides more contact surface and grip.
Last longer, more cornering speed, and faster acceleration.
Light weight Composite Radio Tray: The
Matrix Arena TR is equipped with a light weight composite radio tray
that is designed with strength, weight and simplicity in mind. No
more heavy metal posts.
Low CG Design: Laid down steering servo
design is utilized it maximize low CG effect. Everything is design
to sits lower from differential, radio tray, radio box, center diff,
to engine mounting.
Specs as far as length, width, etc are
confidential right now. But the
truck will be adjustable to be longer, wider, shorter, and less width than
the current Truggies on the market. We believe that the width, length and
engine placement is crucial for truggies as they obtain more traction than
all other off-road vehicles. This is due to their increased weight, tire
surface area contact to surface, and Low CG to scale. We look forward to
introducing our Truggie to the market late this summer.
