In the highly competitive sedan racing class, it’s often up to the small details to decide on victory or defeat and the new Avid v2 leaves nothing to be desired. The car’s completely symmetric chassis layout facilitates careful and precise setup work, while its adjustable flex for both the front and rear end makes it perfectly suitable for any track conditions. Large ball diffs and oversized wheel bearings keep service intervals low and durability at a maximum. Its uncompromising lightweight design employing premium quality materials, lowest possible C of G and sufficient room to fit the most popular components are the cornerstones of Robitronic’s new Avid v2.

Austrian company Robitronic have a big stand here at the fair as always and are displaying their new Avid V2 190mm touring car which we got a preview off back in the middle of summer during the Touring car Euros. The main change with the car is the fact that it uses symmetrical mounting holes in the chassis, as well as a floating motor mount, which ensure even flex on both sides of the car. A new top deck with multiple mounting holes also allow you to experiment with the amount of flex by adding or removing screws. To aid ease of maintenance, the front and rear differentials can be easily removed with 4 screws, while the centre Spur gear can also now be removed by just taking of the top deck. A new steering system, and LiPo pack mounts complete the changes.
