Ultimate Racing have announced the introduction of their latest accessory, this new silicone tube connector. It is their experience that constantly removing and re mounting the fuel tubing that it can get get damaged or cracked. This tube connector allows the user to take their tank or exhaust out of the car without having to take the tubing off the nipple on both parts, thus avoiding the damage. The size of the tube connector and the UR silicone fuel tube is exactly the same, maintaining exactly the same fuel flow when the fuel goes through the tube connector.
