CHEETAH
"Cheetah" is a "Micro-Formula" which was born from the collaborated project of M-Orido project by racing driver Manabu Orido and Dome.
Although it is very compact size car which can drive at urbanized amusement institution such as cart courses or specially prepared space in a city, the safety focused chassis was developed having shock absorption structure at its front, right and left.
Full fledged suspensions as double wishbone type are adopted for both front and rear. "648CC HONDA RC83E water-cooled 4 stroke DOHC unit" and "Constant mesh type 6 shifts return /transmission" are supposed to be installed for the Cheetah which is proud of high maneuverability. Needless to say, it can be driven at full scale circuit. And it can be said that whose greatest feature is the most suitable machine for slide control training such as drift driving by making full use of 3 foot pedals and side brake under the supervision of Manabu Orido.
Decreasing the running cost as much as possible is also an important concept on Cheetah. Therefore, besides the structure is very simple and solid, the body size is very compact which can be loaded into HIGH ACE considering that the transfer and storage is a bottleneck for general users. Furthermore, there is another attractiveness for having fun as "material" since it has the flexibility which users can modify or tune it, such as replacing it to original cowl etc. by themselves besides having fun by driving.
In addition, regarding this Cheetah project, we are continuously developing "Suggestion of pleasure" which has not been existed yet, not only just making and supplying a car but also proposing Race, Trial, Driving Lesson, or Rental test drive on the collaboration with large commercial complex in urban area.
The first proto-type start driving from 2016 Summer, so don’t miss it!!
