Avid carbon fibre touring car option parts
Avid have a range of optional carbon fibre parts for the Xray T4, Team Associated TC6.2 and the Yokomo BD7 available. The line-up includes 2.0mm carbon chassis, 2.0mm and 1.5mm top decks, as well as 2.0mm shock towers with all parts being direct replacements for the kit items. The chassis allow to lower the centre of gravity and the roll centres more than stock and they are specially cut to ensure equal twisting resistance side to side. Also the chassis shape is smoothed to keep droop screw platforms from digging into the track during hard cornering. Different thickness top decks help to fine-tune the chassis stiffness to adapt the cars for both carpet and asphalt racing. The shock tower are available separately for the front and rear and as combo sets including both the front and rear shock stay.

Made for the Hot Bodies D8T Tessmann Edition nitro truggy are five additional steering block arm sets from HPI Racing. They are made to fine tune the handling of the truck with the steering arm set ‘Type 1’ offering the least Ackermann steering geometry with the Ackermann effect increasing across the range of arm sets as the ‘Type’ number increases respectively. More Ackermann makes the car easier to drive, the less Ackermann, the more aggressive the car becomes. All plates are made from high quality carbon fibre and come marked with milled dots for easy identification.
