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.

Efficace claims ACI National Trophy – Report

The 1:10 Touring National Trophy was held by ACI Sport on the beautiful Minicar Fiorano track where it was Andrea Efficace who took the Stock title. With drivers gathering on the famous circuit – one of the best R/C facilities in Italy – from all over the country, the level of the field was very high and the competition was fierce since the very start of the event. In the Stock 17.5 class it was ICON RC’s very own Efficace who took a convincing overall TQ, winning two qualification rounds out of three, with Gianluigi Ciavolino coming in second and Bruno Rampini in third. Efficace then managed to take home a tone to tone win in A1, and to wrap up the event in A2 after a fierce battle with Ciavolino in the first couple of minutes: with the home driver forced to give up on the charge in the second half of the 5-minute final, Andrea simply had to take his Mugen MTC3 powered by a HW “Tuned by ACC” motor across the finish line to take home a back-to-back victory of the title, repeating last year’s win. With Efficace sitting out of A3, Ciavolino was able to take a dominating win in the third leg and to consolidate a convincing P2 with his Awesomatix, ahead of Bruno Rampini who rounded up the podium for Schumacher.
