Serpent Eryx RRS reactive rear steering system

Following a teaser some days ago Serpent now officially introduce the reactive rear steering system for the S411 Eryx touring car. The RRS system provides the rear of the car with a reactive toe-in angle adjustment and it allows to run less toe-in on the straights for increased top speed while still having good side bite during cornering. The design allows to fully adjust the toe-angle change over the suspension travel by using different link dimensions and ball stud heights and it makes use of a large amount of already available parts. The system fits the Eryx 2.0 and 3.0 kits with either the carbon fibre or alloy chassis, it comes with everything needed right out of the box including a comprehensive manual that explains all tuning aspects.

MD Racing MDT15 – Prototype images

Following a set of renderings, Spanish company MD Racing now released first prototype images of their forthcoming MDT15 touring car. Currently built from rapid prototype parts, a fully functional car should be ready to hit the tracks in around 2 weeks time. The MDT15 sports a conventional layout with the battery placed on the right hand side and the motor, speedo and steering servo on the left side of the chassis but especially the front and rear bulkheads heavily differ from current designs as their L-shape allows to permanently mount the shock towers to the bulkheads while the front spool and rear differential being accessible by undoing 4 screws each without having to remove the shocktower and shocks as most current designs require. The upper and lower A-arms are also of a different design but compared to previously released renderings these are only mock-ups at the moment. We bring you more information on the car as soon as they become available.
