Schumacher Mi10 Inboard Rear Toe Option Set

Schumacher has introduced this Inboard Rear Toe Option Set for its recently released Mi10 Electric Touring Car. Highly recommended for Low to Medium traction surfaces, the Carbon Fibre Rear Inboard Toe Option Set allows you to toe in the rear arms at the chassis. Inboard rear toe resists weight transfer to the front of the chassis and stiffens the rear, providing an increase in rear grip. Inboard toe has previously been favoured on low traction asphalt tracks. To allow easy testing back and forth with standard kit zero toe, this position has been included in this option kit in the form of an extra mounting hole in the wishbone.
