Ares for the minis

The Ares at a glance

For competitive youth racing: the chassis fits CIK Mini, Rotax Micro Mini and the electric Rotax e10.

  • Brake

    The Hetschel-HRP EvoX-M mini brake comes filled and bled from the factory and is ready to use straight away. It is easy to modulate, which especially helps younger drivers build confidence in braking.

  • Quick to set up

    With the integrated Sniper Adjusters you set camber and caster quickly and precisely. The Mach1 M6 steering wheel (ø 320 mm, flat bottom) and HRP wheel stars complete the package.

  • Magnesium wheels

    HRP magnesium wheels 115/140, the standard in the mini classes. They reduce rotating mass and help with tyre management. You can fit the tyres the regulations require.

  • Pre-assembled

    The chassis arrives pre-assembled with seat and exhaust holder. That saves team managers and mechanic dads time during setup.

For these classes

  • CIK-Mininational and international
  • Rotax Micro Miniwith combustion engine
  • Rotax e10electric
