Improve MD1.0 Chassis Response with the Yokomo MD-003

The Yokomo MD-003 Mat Graphite Vertical Upper Plate is tailored for the MD1.0 chassis to boost frame rigidity and refine handling feedback. Constructed from solid graphite, it delivers longevity without adding unnecessary mass.

How the Graphite Plate Changes Handling

Racers will notice improved turn-in and steadier mid-corner balance after fitting this plate. The mat surface reduces glare under bright lights and the vertical layout stiffens the car for more accurate suspension tuning.

Remark :
Due to limited stock availability, please notice that some Yokomo items may have to order from the factory and the ready time is around 4-6 weeks. Customer purchases the item is assumed to accept the waiting time which allows us to order directly from the manufacturer if the item is out of our warehouse.

Can I use this with aftermarket mounts?

Most standard MD1.0 aftermarket mounts are compatible, but verify hole patterns and stack height before final assembly.

Will the mat finish affect setup measurements?

No, the finish is cosmetic and does not change mounting geometry; setup measurements remain consistent with the original plate.

Is graphite safer than aluminium for this part?

Graphite gives stiffness with less weight and can reduce transmission of vibration; choice depends on your handling goals rather than safety concerns.

Should I recheck screw torque after a few runs?

Yes, re-torque hardware after initial track sessions since graphite parts can settle into position under load.
