Does anyone know what material is used in the GTR chassis? I read on ultimas webpage that 38mm x 1,5mm tube is used. But I would like to know what steel it is.

The norm would be CDS on any Structural beams or beams under bending loads... ERW on the rest.... Cage Definitely CDS 3mm thick though..

I guess that CDS meens Cold Drawn Steel and ERW means Electric Resistance Welded? But what material is the steel? It should be ST-37 or something like that
