Speed Passion SP-1 & LM-1 option parts

Speed Passion have new option parts for the SP-1 Formula 1 and the LM-1 GT chassis available. First up is a front wing set that makes use of a composite wing mount and two different size polycarbonate wings. The mount directly fits onto the chassis while the wings are simply mounted using tape or screws. Also new is a low-profile plastic rear wing. The part is of a fixed design and, just like the front wing, fits not only the SP-1 but many other of today’s Formula 1 cars. Last but not least comes a pair of long steering pivot balls. They screw directly in the upper A-arms and are usable with the SP-1 and the LM-1 car.
