Robitronic have officially released details on the latest version of the Avid, which has been carefully refined leading to a more maintenance-friendly and better handling chassis. 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.

We are in the process of introducing a new tire line, spearheaded by Piero Torregiani (former head man with ATS). Our new product is currently being developed to ensure our customers get an even better product than before, along with the same great customer service. Please bear with us during these next few months and be assured you won’t be disappointed.
