Refine Chassis Control with a Graphite Upper Plate

The 3Racing SAK-D5614 Graphite Upper Deck is a machined-style upgrade aimed at reducing unwanted flex in the Sakura D5 chassis. Its graphite construction keeps the car light while delivering a firmer platform for suspension tuning.

Why Graphite Works Well on Track

Graphite combines low mass with high rigidity, so the SAK-D5614 improves lateral and torsional stiffness without penalising acceleration. That helps maintain traction and consistent handling lap after lap.

Built for Sakura D5 Geometry

Designed to fit the Sakura D5 layout, this upper deck lines up with standard screw points for a neat installation. The extra rigidity translates to steadier behaviour through corner transitions and high speed sections.

Practical Upgrade for Club Racers

Whether you run local club meetings or practise at the track, the 3Racing graphite deck is a sensible tuning step. It gives a durable upgrade path for drivers chasing cleaner handling and improved steering precision.

This deck is tailored for the Sakura D5 chassis. Other Sakura models may require modifications or different brackets to fit correctly.
By stiffening the chassis, tyre contact patches stay more consistent, which can lead to more predictable grip and potentially more even tyre wear under aggressive driving.
Try softening roll bars or adjusting shock damping to compensate for the added stiffness. Small changes will help you find the best balance for your circuit.
