Roche P12 Evo SWB alloy chassis & LH steering knuckles

Coming from Roche are new optional parts for the P12 Evo 1/12th scale pan car in the form of a short wheelbase aluminium chassis as well as hard composite low height steering knuckles. The SWB alloy chassis is cut from 2.0mm material and it comes hard-coated for wear and looks. Using the chassis will improve the car’s performance on tight and twitchy tracks and included in the set comes a carbon fibre front bumper mount. Also new are the low height steering knuckles moulded from a hard composite material. The reduced height of the steering knuckles will allow for a wider range of outer upper arm positions while the hard material improves steering response in high-bite and high-temperature conditions.
