Coming from Xpress and made for their FT1 and FT1S FWD touring cars are new short shock conversion parts. First up is a front adapter set that will allow to use optional short low-profile shocks in the front of the cars. The adapters are machined from aluminium, they come black anodised, and feature three mounting positions for the upper shock mounting while attaching to the standard shock tower. Also new is a short shock rear shock tower for the FT1 and FT1S. Machined from 3mm carbon fibre the shock stay features a new geometry for the use with optional low-profile short shocks with multiple upper shock mounting positions being accessible. Using shorter shocks will lower the overall centre of gravity, making for sharper steering response and improved corner speed.
