Car weight approx 340kg including oil and water.
Multi-tubular, triangulated and stepped spaceframe that is jig built. Manufactured from 4130 chrome-moly and T45 steel tubing, fully bracketed and powder coated.As safety is the number 1 priority of any responsible manufacturer, a decision was taken to obtain FIA approval. MIRA, on behalf of the FIA, required a number of specification changes and improvements to be carried out on the chassis. These changes have resulted in an even stronger car with increased safety features and added side impact protection. The tubular steel specification for the front and main roll bars for instance has been increased so the loading tests applied to them are the same as Formula 3. As a result, the A10 is now certificated to FIA Article 277 – 2009.very few club racing cars (if any) have been built to this safety specification.

FIA and Safety
As safety is the number 1 priority of any responsible manufacturer, a decision was taken to obtain FIA approval. MIRA, on behalf of the FIA, required a number of specification changes and improvements to be carried out on the chassis.

An FIA approved, foam filled bag tank manufactured to FT3 – 1999 specifications can be fitted as standard. Other fuel cells can be supplied depending on the owners or drivers preference. The fuel cell contains the fuel pump, fuel filter and regulator as it is a feed only system. It is mounted between the driver and the engine with a firewall between the driver and fuel cell, as well as a firewall between the fuel cell and the engine.
Lifeline provide the fully plumbed in fire extinguisher system that is fitted as standard. It is mounted ahead of the driver’s seat with two exit tubes - one over the engine and the other by the dash area.
The safety harness meets or exceeds FIA safety standards and is compatible with HANS devices. The Frontal Head Restraint HANS device is, in our view, the single most important advance in driver safety for decades.
HISTORY AND DEVELOPMENT
The company had the opportunity to purchase the body moulds of a very modern Single Seat racing car whose chassis had been specifically constructed for 4 cylinder motorcycle engines. A new body buck was designed and built along with a new floor that gave an excellent aero package – vital to maximise the power to weight ratio of this type of car. Using the Suzuki GSX-R 1000 engine that has excellent reliability as well as power and torque, the Aztec Motorsport A10 also proved to have excellent handling characteristics.
